Chapter 14.2, Problem 14.31P
Determine the energy lost due to friction and the impacts for Prob. 14.1.
14.1 A 30-g bullet is fired with a horizontal velocity of 450 m/s and becomes embedded in block B, which has a mass of 3 kg. After the impact, block B slides on 30-kg carrier C until it impacts the end of the carrier. Knowing the impact between B and C is perfectly plastic and the coefficient of kinetic friction between B and C is 0.2, determine (a) the velocity of the bullet and B after the first impact, (b) the final velocity of the carrier.

2.) Consider the fig. below: Hint… use the law of conservation of Impulse and momentum to solve this problem
14.35 Two automobiles A and B, of mass mĄ and m³, respectively, are
traveling in opposite directions when they collide head on. The impact is as-
sumed perfectly plastic, and it is further assumed that the energy absorbed
by each automobile is equal to its loss of kinetic energy with respect to a
moving frame of reference attached to the mass center of the two-vehicle
system. Denoting by EA and EB, respectively, the energy absorbed by auto-
mobile A and by automobile B, (a) show that EA/EB = mB/mA, that is, the
amount of energy absorbed by each vehicle is inversely proportional to its
mass, (b) compute EA and EB, knowing that mA = 2400 kg and mg = 1350 kg
and that the speeds of A and B are, respectively, 135 km/h and 90 km/h.

a) the mass of disk B if the coefficient of restitution between the two disks is known to be 0.5,
b) the range of possible values of the mass of disk B if the coefficient of restitution between the two disks is unknown.
