57 In Fig. 9-9, a ball of mass m = 60 g is shot with
speed v; = 22 m/s into the barrel of a spring gun of
mass M = 240 g initially at rest on a frictionless
surface. The ball sticks in the barrel at the point of
maximum compression of the spring. Assume that the
increase in thermal energy due to friction between the
ball and the barrel is negligible. (a) What is the speed
of the spring gun after the ball stops in the barrel? (b)
What fraction of the initial kinetic energy of the ball
is stored in the spring?

- One of the waste products of a nuclear reactor is plutonium-239 (239Pu). This nucleus is radioactive and decays by splitting into a helium-4 nucleus and a uranium-235 nucleus (4He+ 235U), the latter of which is also radioactive and will itself decay some time later. The energy emitted in the plutonium decay is 8.40×10 –13J and is entirely converted to kinetic energy of the helium and uranium nuclei.
