A bowling ball hangs from a 1.0-m-long cord, Fig. 7–30:
(i) A 200-gram putty ball moving 5.0 m/s hits the bowling
ball and sticks to it, causing the bowling ball to swing up;

ball and bounces straight back at nearly 5.0 m/s, causing the
bowling ball to swing up. Describe what happens.

- Hello, here is my question A spring with spring constant k = 3.75 N/cm is compressed 7.00 cm. A 1.50 kg mass is placed next to the compressed spring. When the spring is released, this mass moves without friction and collides with a stationary mass of 2.00 kg. The two masses stick together and move without friction up a slope angled at 20.0 degrees. (a) (10 points) How far along the slope does the two-mass system travel? (b) (5 points) If it takes 5.00*10-3 seconds from the initial impact for the two masses to stick together, what is the magnitude of the average contact force between the two blocks? (c) (5 points) The two-mass system will slide back down the slope and compress the spring. What is the spring’s maximum compression?
