(c) (a) When ball 1 is pulled out and released in Figure (b), it collides with ball 2 and ball 5 swings out, reaching the same height as ball 1. Explain why this happens using linear momentum and energy principles. In particular, explain why this scenario in Figure (b) can happen only if the collisions between all of the balls are elastic. (b) Is it ever possible that, when ball 1 is released, balls 4 and 5 will swing out on the opposite side and travel with half the speed of ball 1, as shown in Figure (c)?

- Frank “Cannonball” Richards was an American entertainer and vaudeville performer. He was famous for having incredibly strong abdominal muscles. In feats of strength, he would often let people punch him in the stomach, jump on him, and even hit him with sledgehammers. However, his greatest claim to fame was being shot in the stomach with a 47-kg (104 lb) cannonball (see the photoLinks to an external site.). While performing, Richards limited this demonstration to just twice a day, since it was quite painful. He would live a long life and pass away at age 81 in 1969. If the speed of the cannonball was 10.0 m/s right before it collided with Richards and the speed of the cannonball was 0.87 m/s right after the collision, what was Richards’s speed immediately after being struck by the cannonball? Assume Richards’s mass was 86 kg.arrow_forwardSelect the correct answer. A fast car is out of control.

- A 2 kg falcon is diving at 28 m/s at a downward angle to intercept a 500 g dove flying horizontally. After the collision, to prevent them from hitting the ground below, the falcon immediately spreads its wings to begin slowing down. What energy (in J) must be dissipated by the falcon to slow them to a stop in 3 vertical meters?arrow_forwardThe reason why I used 2g instead than g is that I have to cancel 2 "g" from the left side. Meaning I had to add 1/2g on the right side. Why are you instead adding only 1/g? Sorry, sometimes I get lost in the simple steps.arrow_forwardThe Apollo astronauts landed on the Moon and explored it.
