From shore, someone throws a baseball of mass 0.125 kg to you, and you catch it; the horizontal component of the ball s velocity is 28.2 m/s. What will be the sled s (and your) speed with respect to the surface of the pond after you catch the ball? 24.4 cm/s 2 2.31 cm/s 3 3.85 cm/s 4 4.56 cm/s

A man holding a rock sits on a sled that is sliding across a frozen lake (negligible friction) with a speed of 0.530 m/s. The total mass of the sled, man, and rock is 94.5 kg. The mass of the rock is 0.250 kg and the man can throw it with a speed of 14.5 m/s. Both speeds are relative to the ground. Determine the speed of the sled (in m/s) if the man throws the rock forward (i.e., in the direction the sled is moving). m/s Determine the speed of the sled (in m/s) if the man throws the rock directly backward.
A 650.0-kg car makes a 90° turn. Its speed before the turn is 23.0 m/s and after the turn it is 27.6 m/s. Calculate the magnitude of the change in the car's momentum.
You are sitting in a sled, at rest on a pond covered with nice, thick, frictionless ice. Your own mass is 76.3 kg, and the sleds mass is 10.8 kg. The sled is moving by itself on the ice at 3.07 m/s. You parachute vertically down onto the sled, and land gently. What is the sleds velocity with you now on it? 0.49 m/s 0.44 m/s 0.38 m/s 0.23 m/s
60 kg), Scotty (ms Chekhov (mc 75 kg), and Uhura (mu = 55 kg) are floating motionless in space near the Enterprise after it has been attacked by Tholians. All three are tethered with massless ropes for safety, with L₁ = 4 m, and L₂ 2 m. They pull on their ropes to change position. At some later time, they are all again motionless, but their positions have changed as seen here. How far did Uhura move horizontally? = BEFORE = L₁ 1₂ Answer: 3.79 m L₁ + 1₂ AFTER = L₁
You are sitting in a sled, at rest on a pond covered with nice, thick, frictionless ice. Your own mass is 79.0 kg, and the mass of the sled when empty is 18.6 kg. From shore, someone throws a baseball of mass 0.136 kg to you, and you catch it; the horizontal component of the ball s velocity is 25.0 m/s. What will be the sled s (and your) speed with respect to the surface of the pond after you catch the ball? 4.30 cm/s 18.1 cm/s 2.09 cm/s 3.48 cm/s
A spaceship has a mass of 600 kg at rest and accelerates to high speed. A person at rest on the ground observes that the spaceship has 1000 kg. How fast (in x 108 m/s) is the spaceship?
You are on a spacewalk with another astronaut. You throw a tool to them. Your mass is82 kg, the other astronaut’s mass is 84 kg, and the tool’s mass is 12 kg. Initially, you and yourcomrade are at rest. You throw the tool with a speed of 6 m/s. After you throw the tool your velocity is -0.878m/s. What is your comrade’s velocity after they catch the tool?
Two blocks with masses m1 = 1.4kg and m2 = 4.6kg are at rest on a frictionless surface with a compressed spring between them. When the blocks are let go, block 1 is observed to have a velocity of 4.4m/s to the left. What is the speed of block 2?
You and another astronaut are in space. You throw a tool to them that has a mass of 17kg. Your mass is 87kg and the other astronaut's mass is 91kg. Initially you and the other astronaut are at rest. You threw the tool at a speed of 7m/s. What is the velocity of the astronaut after they catch the tool?
You find yourself stuck in outer space with nothing but your physics book and a space suit. You have a mass of 91 kg in your suit, and your physics book has a mass of 2.3 kg. In order to make it back to your stationary spaceship before running out of air, you must move at 0.18 m/s. How fast (in m/s) do you have to throw your physics book to achieve this speed?
