The kinetic energy of a rolling billiard ball is given byKE = 2mv?. Suppose a 0.17-kg billiard ball is rolling down apool table with an initial speed of 4.5 m/s. As it travels, it losessome of its energy as heat. The ball slows down to 3.8 m/s andthen collides head-on with a second billiard ball of equal mass.The first billiard ball completely stops and the second one rollsaway with a velocity of 3.8 m/s. Assume the first billiard ball isthe system. Calculate w, q, and AE for the process.

One hazard of space travel is debris left by previous missions. There are several thousand objects orbiting Earth that are large enough to be detected by radar, but there are far greater numbers of very small objects, such as flakes of paint. Calculate the force exerted in newtons by a 0.200 mg chip of paint that strikes a spacecraft window at a relative speed of 4.00 ✕ 103 m/s and sticks, given the collision lasts 6.00 ✕ 10−8 s. (Enter the magnitude.)
An archer shoots an arrow toward a 300-g target that is sliding in her direction at a speed of 2.10 m/s on a smooth, slippery surface. The 22.5-g arrow is shot with a speed of 42.0 m/s and passes through the target, which is stopped by the impact. What is the speed of the arrow after passing through the target? m/s
Lark Brandt won a "Worlds Fastest Smash" competition in the early 2000s. His ping pong ball achieved a speed of 112.5 km/hr. If his ping pong ball had a mass of 2.7 g and hit a wooden block with a mass of 125 g and bounced back with a speed of 45.0 km/hr, what speed (in km/hr) would the wooden block have?

A 50-g ball is shot into a chamber attached to a 500-g cart. After the collision the ball/cart combination moves away with a speed of 3.0 m/s. Assuming that friction and air resistance are negligible, determine the amount of energy lost in the collision.
The Moon's craters are remnants of meteorite collisions. Suppose a fairly large asteroid that has a mass of 5.06 ✕ 1012 kg (about a kilometer across) strikes the Moon at a speed of 14.8 km/s. A. How much kinetic energy (in J) is lost in the collision? Such an event may have been observed by medieval English monks who reported observing a red glow and subsequent haze about the Moon. B. In October 2009, NASA crashed a rocket into the Moon, and analyzed the plume produced by the impact. (Significant amounts of water were detected.) Answer part (a) and (b) for this real-life experiment. The mass of the rocket was 2000 kg and its speed upon impact was 9000 km/h. speed of recoin (in m/s) loss of kinetic energy (in J)

If the pendulum rises a maximum height of 0.52 m , how much kinetic energy did the pellet have after emerging from the Styrofoam?
A red cart of mass 270g and a blue cart of mass 690 g are at rest on a level track. They are pushed apart by an expanding spring giving the red cart a speed 1.01 m/s. This is a two part problem. What is the speed of the blue cart after they spring apart? Calculate the total kinetic energy generated in this explosion?
In a very busy off-campus eatery one chef sends a 221 g broccoli-tomato-pickle-onion-mushroom pizza sliding down the counter from left to right at 1.59 m/s. Almost simultaneously, the other chef launches a 315 g veggieburger (with everything, but hold the horseradish) along the same counter from right to left at 2.27 m/s. The two delicacies collide head on at the given speeds. The counter is practically friction free due to accumulated grease. The two delicacies merge into a single, unbelievably savory serving. In what direction does the merged meal move, if it moves at all? a. to the right b. to the left c. does not move At what speed does it move in m/s? (positive number).
While playing a game of billards, your 0.50kg cue ball, travelling at 1.9 m/s glances off a stationary 0.30 kg billard ball so that the billard ball moves off at 1.3 m/s at an angle of 32 degrees clockwise from the cue ball's original path. What is the final speed of the cue ball?
15 75 Vb+w だ h A block of mass m,-1.28 kg slides to the right at a speed of 2.46 m/s on a frictionless horizontal surface, as shown in the figure. It "collides" with a wedge of mass mw, which moves to the left at a speed of 1.13 m/s. The wedge is shaped so that the block slides seamlessly up the Teflon (frictionless!) surface, as the two come together. Relative to the horizontal surface, block and wedge are moving with a common velocity Vb+w at the instant the block stops sliding up the wedge. a) If the block's center of mass rises by a distance h = 0.38 m, what is the mass of the wedge? The gravitational acceleration is g = 9.8 m/s². Express your answer in kg.
