A stationary but movable 400 kg cannon is fired, and the 10 kg cannonball moves off to the right with a velocity of 20.0 m/s . What is the cannon's speed in m/s (neglecting friction or any restraints )?
To test the speed of a bullet, you create a pendulum by attaching a 5.00 kg wooden block to the bottom of a 2.40 m long, 1.40 kg rod. The top of the rod is attached to a frictionless axle and is free to rotate about that point.
You fire a 10 g bullet into the block, where it sticks, and the pendulum swings out to an angle of 34.0°. What was the speed of the bullet?
A 22 g golf ball is placed at the top of a loop de loop track 45 cm above the top of a desk and released from rest. After the ball moves through the track, it rolls off of the table. If the table is 1.75 meters tall, how far does the golf ball travel before hitting the ground? (Friction and air resistance are negligable)

- An astronaut is playing with a ping pong paddle and ball in zero gravity. The astronaut is 12m from a flat wall and floating toward it at 4m/s. A ping pong ball bounces back and forth between his paddle and the wall at 11m/s. Eventually, the astronaut reaches the wall and traps the ball against it. (The ball’s collisions are “elastic”, meaning the ball does not lose energy so its speed is constant.) (The astronaut is much more massive than the ball, so the ball bounces don’t affect his/her speed.)
