There are two curling stones sitting on an icy surface (fricionless). Call one the target and one the projectile. The projectile is initially moving along the x-axis towards the +x-direction, and the target is initially stationary. Each curling stone has a mass of 15.6 kg. The moving stone (projectile) has an initial velocity of 3.94 m/s and collides with the stationary stone (target) "dead center." The projectile stone comes to a rest where the target stone was, but the target stone breaks apart into two chunks with a total mass of 15.6 kg. One chunk has a mass of 4.18, and slides with a velocity of 5.58 m/s with a -90° angle relative to the +x direction. What is the velocity of the second chunk of curling stone in m/s?

A mine car, whose mass is m1 = 441 kg, rolls at a speed of v1 = 0.517 m/s on a horizontal track, as the drawing below shows. An m2 = 164 kg chunk of coal has a speed of v2 = 0.815 m/s when it leaves the chute. Assume θ = 27.5°. Determine the velocity of the car/coal system after the coal has come to rest in the car.
A 1.35-kg block of wood sits at the edge of a table, 0.782 m above the floor. A 0.0105-kg bullet moving horizontally with a speed of 715 m/s embeds itself within the block.

A 200 kg cannon rests on a smooth surface. It fires a 10 kg cannonball in horizontal direction. The cannonball moves with a velocity of 200 m/s measured relative to the cannon right after the firing. Determine the speed of the cannon after the fire.
A baseball of mass m1 = 0.29 kg is thrown at another ball hanging from the ceiling by a length of string L = 1.55 m. The second ball m2 = 0.81 kg is initially at rest while the baseball has an initial horizontal velocity of V1 = 3.5 m/s. After the collision the first baseball falls straight down (no horizontal velocity). What is the angle that the string makes with the vertical at the highest point of travel in degrees?
A 46.0-kg skater is traveling due east at a speed of 2.60 m/s. A 66.0-kg skater is moving due south at a speed of 6.10 m/s. They collide and hold on to each other after the collision, managing to move off at an angle south of east, with a speed of vf. Find (a) the angle and (b) the speed vf, assuming that friction can be ignored.
Sphere m1 with a mass of 1.0 kg collides with m2, which also has a mass of 1.0 kg, in an elastic collision. If v2f= 15 m/s and θ2= 40°, determine v1i. (Hint: An elastic collision requires that the after-collision angle between the two velocities must be 90°.)
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 = 8.5 kg and the horizontal component of its velocity is v = 8.25 m/s when the performer, of mass m2 = 70.5 kg, catches it. a)If the performer is on nearly frictionless roller skates, enter an expression for his recoil speed, in terms of the masses and initial speed. v' =
A 14.4-g wad of sticky clay is hurled horizontally at a 71-g wooden block initially at rest on a horizontal surface. The clay sticks to the block. After impact, the block slides d=11 m before coming to rest. The coefficient of friction between block and surface is µk=0.56. What is the normal force caused by the ground on the block/blob (again, consider them as one mass)? 2. What is the frictional force on the block/blob? 3. What is the work done by friction on the block/blob?

A shell is shot with an initial velocity of 17 m/s, at an angle of 0o = 64° with the horizontal. At the top of the trajectory, the shell explodes into two fragments of equal mass (see the figure). One fragment, whose speed immediately after the explosion is zero, falls vertically. How far from the gun does the other fragment land, assuming that the terrain is level and that air drag is negligible? Explosion
Kyle, a 80.0 kg football player, leaps straight up into the air (with no horizontal velocity) to catch a pass. He catches the 0.430 kg ball precisely at the peak of his jump, when he is 0.437 m off the ground. He hits the ground 0.0358 m away from where he leapt. If the ball was moving horizontally when it was caught, how fast u was the ball traveling? Vs m/s
