Two clay balls collide and stick. Ball 1 has a mass of 10 kg and an initial velocity of 5 m/s in the positive x direction. Ball 2 has a mass of 20 kg and an initial velocity of 5 m/s in the negative x direction. What is the final velocity of the combined mass?
A block of wood, with mass 1.30 kg, rests stationary on horizontal ground. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the ground is 0.948. A bullet, with mass 0.250 kg, moving horizontally, hits and sticks into the block of wood. We find that the speed of the block of wood, with the bullet embedded in it, just after the collision is 14.5 m/s. (a) Calculate the speed of the bullet before hitting the block of wood. m/s (b) Calculate how far the block slides along the ground before coming to rest.
In Figure (1), a 3.50 g bullet is fired horizontally at two blocks at rest on a frictionless table. The bullet passes through block 1 (mass 1.36 kg) and embeds itself in block 2 (mass 2.03 kg).

Two particles undergo an inelastic collision whose final kinetic energy represents 31% of the initial kinetic energy. Before the collision, particle 1 of mass mi = 0.5 kg moves at 5 m/s towards the east and particle 2 of mass m2 = 1 kg moves at 4 m/s at 30 ° south of west. After the collision, the velocity vector of particle 1 is oriented to the north. We will use the following notation: u1 the velocity vector of particle 1 before the collision, u2 the speed vector of particle 2 before the collision, v 1 the speed vector of the particle 1 after the collision and v 2 the velocity vector of particle 2 after the collision. a) Determine the components of the velocity vector of particle 2 before the collision. b) Determine the modulus of the velocity vector of particle 1 after the collision. c) Determine the modulus and orientation of the velocity vector of particle 2 after the collision.

A 10 kg projectile was launched at the horizontal ground at a velocity of 20 m/s, 10 degrees with respect to the horizontal. The projectile hit a 30 kg box on top of a table at 0.177 seconds.

A 10.0-g marble slides to the left with a velocity of magnitude 0.400 m/s on the frictionless, horizontal surface of an icy New York sidewalk and has a head-on, elastic collision with a larger 30.0-g marble sliding to the right with a velocity of magnitude 0.200 m/s. Find the velocity of each marble (magnitude and direction) after the collision. (Since the collision is head-on, all the motion is along a line.) (b) Calculate the change in momentum (that is, the momentum after the collision minus the momentum before the collision) for each marble.

A small wooden block with mass 0.750 kg is suspended from the lower end of a light cord that is 1.54 m long. The block is initially at rest. A bullet with mass 0.0128 kg is fired at the block with a horizontal velocity v0. The bullet strikes the block and becomes embedded in it.
