- Blocks A and B are moving toward each other on a horizontal, frictionless surface. Block A has a mass of 5 kg and a velocity of +40 m/s, while B has a mass of 10 kg and a velocity of -6 m/s. They suffer a head on, completely inelastic collision. What is the common speed of the blocks after the collision.The drawing shows a collision between two small balls. Ball (1) has a mass of 140 g and is moving along the x-axis with a velocity of 4.60 m/s. It makes a collision with ball (2), which has a mass of 210 g and is initially at rest. After the 60°). What is the magnitude of %D collision, the two balls fly apart with angles as shown in the figure below (a = 58° and B the velocity of ball (2) after the collision? m/s +y m2 m1 +xA falcon with a mass of 0.258 kg is flying along at a horizontal speed of 8.2 m/s and it sees a 0.024 kg insect heading straight towards it with a speed of 11 m/s.

- Two billiard balls are at rest and touching each other on a pool table. The cue ball travels at 3.8 m/s along the line of symmetry between these balls and strikes them simultaneously. If the collision is elastic, what is the velocity of the three balls after the collision?This amazing summer adventure is finally winding down with some pool. Unfortunately, this pool table is wonky and some of the balls are larger than the others! Anthony hits the cue ball (mass = 0.15 kg) and it moves at 5 m/s when it strikes head on into the number 3 ball (mass = 0.30 kg). After this inelastic collision, the cue ball moves off at 60 degrees relative to the +x axis and the number 3 ball moves off at -30 degrees relative to the +axis as shown. What were the speeds of the two balls after the collision?A child on ice skates with a mass of 35 kg and a velocity of 7.5 m/s [S] undergoes a collision with a second child on ice skates with a of mass 45 kg and a velocity of 3.5 m/s [S30°E]. If the two children become entangled during the collision, determine their final velocity.
