Vahé and Nicolás, both with mass M, are playing catch with a football of mass m on the frictionless surface of a frozen pond. Since they're physics professors and not professional football players, they can only throw the football with a speed vo relative to themselves. All of your answers below should be only in terms of m, M, and vo- (a) Relative to a stationary observer on the surface of the pond, what is the speed v, with which the football is moving after it is Vahé throws the ball to his right, toward Nicolás. M thrown? (b) Nicolás catches the ball. What is the speed v2 with which Nicolás and the ball are moving after he catches the ball?

A cannon of mass M fires a projectile of mass m. The energy liberated in firing is E. Assume the projectile is discharged horizontally and that the cannon is mounted on wheels of a negligible mass. Using the fact that the energy E is taken up by both cannon and projectile and that momentum is conserved in the firing, do the following: A) Find the velocity of the projectile in terms of the masses and the energy E. B) By writing the velocity of the recoiling cannon in terms of the velocity of the projectile, find a relationship between the energy liberated, E, and the energy of the projectile. C) Explain what happens as M gets very large compared to m.
A new type of force was discovered by physicists with the following expression:Fnew = a/x +Be^x+3x^4 where alpha & beta are constants, and x is the position. The expression above was obtained from the interaction of a massless Higgs Boson (a type of particle) and a black hole quantum physicists then decides to design and build a machine that is able to move the Higgs Boson from x2 to x1. How much work should the machine do to achieve this feat? (For simplicity, consider that no energy is lost in the process) to determine the work done we apply the following and make sure to follow the instructions.
In the four momentum treatment of relativistic particle collisions or decays, The mass of a particle is different for various observers. O Momentum and energy are still conserved in any inertial frame of reference. O The energy equals the sum of the momentum, pc, plus the mass, mc2. O The momentum and energy for a process are the same in all frames of reference.

R3B2. Alicia is a student on a passenger train moving at a constant velocity relative to the ground. She synchronizes her watch with the station clock as she passes through the town of Bannon station, and then compares her watch with the station clock as she passes through the Center town station farther down the line. The ground is an inertial frame, and the Bannon and Center clocks are synchronized in that frame. (1) Using a model or diagram, is the time she measures between the events of passing through these towns a proper time? (2) Is it a coordinate time in some inertial reference frame? (3) Is it the spacetime interval between the events?
