You aim a rifle horizontally in a perfectly flat field while your friend holds a bullet at the same height as your rifle. You fire the rifle and your friend simply opens her hand simultaneously, allowing the bullet to drop. Your friend claims that both bullets hit the ground at the same moment. Do you agree? Justify your answer. Ignore air resistance.
From what might be a possible scene in the comic book The X-Men, the Juggernaut (mJ) is charging into Colossus (mC) and the two collide. The initial speed of the Juggernaut is vJi and the initial speed of Colossus is vCi. After the collision, the final speed of the Juggernaut is vJf and the final speed of Colossus is vCf as they each bounce off of the other, heading in opposite directions. a. What is the impulse experienced by the Juggernaut? b. What is the impulse experienced by Colossus? c. In your own words, explain how these impulses must compare with each other and how they are related to the average force each superhero experiences during the collision.
