The sport of curling is quite popular in Canada. A curler slides a 19.1-kg stone so that it strikes a competitor's identical stationary stone at 6.80 m/s before moving at an angle of 60.0° counterclockwise from its initial direction. The competitor's stone moves off at 6.40 m/s. Determine the final speed of the first stone v1f. V1f = m/s Determine the final direction of the second stone as an angle a relative to the first stone's initial direction of motion. Let a = counterclockwise from the first stone's initial direction define the direction of positive angles.

Question 2 please
A physics student, in a stationary elevator, places a 240.0 g mass on an electronic balance. The student hits the elevator button and it begins to move upwards. While the elevator is moving, the student records this information Time = 0 to 3.0 sec the balance reads 278 grams Time = 3.0 - 12 sec the balance reads 240. grams Time = 12.0 to 15.0 sec the balance reads 192 gram How far up (in meters) did the elevator travel? Consider: UP to be (+), DOWN to be (-) and g =9.8 m/s2 .
