At the highest point in its parabolic trajectory, a shell explodes into two fragments. Is it possible for both fragments to fall straight down after the explosion? Why or why not?
Two stars each of one solar mass (= 2×1030 kg) are approaching each other for a head on collision. When they are a distance 109 km, their speeds are negligible. What is the speed with which they collide ? The radius of each star is 104 km. Assume the stars to remain undistorted until they collide. (Use the known value of G)
Two asteroids strike head-on: before the collision, asteroid A AmA = 7.5 * 10 3.3 kms 12 kgB Ge has velocity and asteroid B AmB = 1.45 * 10 1.4 kms 13 kgB A has velocity in the opposite
direction. If the asteroids stick together, what is the velocity (magnitude and direction) of the new asteroid after the collision?

- As shown in Figure P8.20, a bullet of mass m and speed v passes completely through a pendulum bob of mass M. The bullet emerges with a speed of v/2.

What is the minimum value of v such that the pendulum bob will barely swing through a complete vertical circle? Figure P8.20arrow_forwardCan you solve this question quickly please? Consider the collision pictured below. While m2=10kgm2=10kg is initially at rest, horizontally moving m1=6kgm1=6kg with a speed of v1=11.8m/sv1=11.8m/s collides with it. After the collision, the two masses scatter with speeds of v′1=7.8m/sv1′=7.8m/s and v′2v2′. If θ1=48oθ1=48o, determine the speed of m2m2 after the collision, v′2=?v2′=?.

- You have been hired as an expert witness in an investiga- tion of a quadcopter drone incident. The incident occurred during a very rare meteor shower during which several unusually massive chunks of meteoric material were passing through the atmosphere and striking the ground. The unmanned drone was hovering at rest over the center of a house on fire, having just dropped fire retardant, when it seemed to spontaneously explode into four large pieces. The locations of the four pieces on the ground were meas- ured as follows, relative to the center of the house over which the drone was hovering: Distance from Center Direction Piece # Mass (kg) of House (m) from House 1 80.0 150 Due west 2 120 75.0 Due north 50.0 90.0 20.0° west of south 4 150 50.0 20.0° north of east The fire department is suggesting that the drone was defec- tive and exploded while in use.
