Consider an elastic collision between two balls. Find the magnitudes and directions of both velocities after the collision. Ball 1: mass 1kg ; Vx= 1 m/s, Vy= 0.3 m/s Ball 2: mass 3kg ; Vx= -0.5 m/s, Vy = -0.5 m/s
A young 32-kg ice hockey goalie, originally at rest, deflects a 0.14-kg hockey puck slapped at him at a speed of 36 m/s. In this problem, take the original direction of the puck as positive. Part (a) Suppose the goalie and the ice puck have an elastic collision and the puck is reflected back in the direction from which it came. What would the final velocity of the puck, in meters per second, be in this case? vf,2= Part (b) Suppose the goalie and the ice puck have an elastic collision and the puck is reflected back in the direction from which it came. What would the final velocity, in meters per second, of the goalie be in this case? vf,1 =

A 1.72 kg block of soft wood is suspended by two strings from the ceiling. The wood is free to rotatein pendulum-like fashion when a force is exerted upon it. An 8.5 g bullet is fired into the wood. Thebullet enters the wood at 431 m/s and exits the opposite side shortly thereafter. If the wood rises to aheight of 13.8 cm after the collision, then what is the exit speed of the bullet?
the right. They undergo a head-on elastic collision and each rebounds, along the same line as it approached. Find the final speeds of the particles. (Enter your answers in terms of v;, the initial speed of each mass.) Two blocks with masses 5m and 7m are on a collision course with the same initial speeds v;. The block with mass 5m is traveling to the left, and the 7m block is traveling to V5m,f Vi = V7m,f Vi

A tennis ball of mass 57.0 g is held just above a basketball of mass 637 g.
