The drawing shows a collision between two pucks on an air-hockey table. Puck A has a mass of 0.0350 kg and is moving along the x axis with a velocity of + 5.51 m/s. It makes a collision with puck B, which has a mass of 0.0700 kg and is initially at rest. The collision is not head-on. After the collision, the two pucks fly apart with the angles shown in the drawing. Find the speed of (a) puck A and (b) puck B. 65 37 At rest Before collision After collision

A steel ball of mass 0.440 kg is fastened to a cord that is 80.0 cm long and fixed at the far end. The ball is then released when the cord is horizontal, as shown in the figure. At the bottom of its path, the ball strikes a 3.10 kg steel block initially at rest on a frictionless surface. The collision is elastic. Find (a) the speed of the ball and (b) the speed of the block, both just after the collision. (a) Number i (b) Number Unit Unit

A rocket ship is travelling through space. The fuselage section has a mass of 505 kg. The Nose Cone (front end) section has a mass of 100 kg. The rocket is travelling at 52.0 m/s when the rocket engine stops and the two sections are separated by an explosion in such a way that they stay in a straight line. If the Nose Cone section (front end) continues forward at 98.0 m/s, determine the speed of the Fuselage section after the separation.

Object A traveling east at 8.47 m/s collides with object B traveling west at 2.43 m/s. Object A has mass 2.82 kg and object B has mass 8.24 kg. The collsion takes place in one dimension, and is totally inelastic. Taking east to be positive, find the velocity of object A (in m/s) after the collision.
Jack (mass 52.0 kg) is sliding due east with speed 8.00 m/s on the surface of a frozen pond. He collides with Jill (mass 48.0 kg), who is initially at rest. After the collision, Jack is traveling at 5.00 m/s in a direction 34.0° north of east. Ignore friction.
The figure below shows a person in a canoe on a lake. The person's mass is 68 kg, and the canoe's is 135 kg. The person and canoe are initially at rest when the person throws a package of mass m = 15 kg horizontally to the right with a speed of vi = 4.0 m/s. What is the velocity of the canoe after the package is thrown? Neglect any resistance force from the water. (Give the magnitude in m/s, and select the correct direction from the options given.) A person in a canoe throws a package of mass m to the right with velocity vector vi. magnitude m/sdirection
Two metal blocks are sliding across a frictionless floor. Block one has a mass of 4.75 kg and is sliding with a velocity of 3.25 m/s east (take east to be the positive x-direction). Block two has a mass of 7.25 kg and is sliding with a velocity of 7.39 m/s north (take north to be the positive y-direction). They collide and bounce apart but it is NOT a perfectly elastic collision. After the collision, block one is moving at 4.50 m/s at 75.0º north of east. Determine block two’s velocity in the Y-DIRECTION after the collision. (Report your answer in units of m/s, but only type the numerical answer (and any applicable sign).)
During a circus act, a performer thrills the crowd by catching a cannon ball shot at him. The cannon ball has a mass of m1 = 12.5 kg and the horizontal component of its velocity is v = 8.25 m/s when the performer, of mass m2 = 69 kg, catches it.If the performer is on nearly frictionless roller skates, enter an expression for his recoil speed, in terms of the masses and initial speed. What is his recoil speed, in meters per second?
A billiard ball moving at +10.0 m/s along the x-axis collides with a second billiard ball, of identical mass, at rest.
