Chapter 9, Problem 79P
A 114-g Frisbee is lodged on a tree branch 7.65 m above the ground. To free it, you lob a 240-g dirt clod vertically upward. The dirt leaves your hand at a point 1.23 m above the ground, moving at 17.7 m/s. It sticks to the Frisbee. Find (a) the maximum height reached by the Frisbee-dirt combination and (b) the speed with which the combination hits the ground.

The carbon isotope 14C is used for carbon dating of archeological artifacts. 14C (mass 2.34 x 10-26 kg) decays by the process known as beta decay in which the nucleus emits an electron (the beta particle) and a subatomic particle called a neutrino. In one such decay, the electron and the neutrino are emitted at right angles to each other. The electron (mass 9.11 x 10-31 kg) has a speed of 5.00 x 107 m/s and the neutrino has a momentum of 8.00 x 10-24 kg • m/s. What is the recoil speed of the nucleus?
In a baseball game, one of the players graps the ball and lessens the influence of the ball by
moving his hand back. The ball touches the player's hand at a speed of 140.4 km/h in the
horizontal direction. The ball is 152 gr. The player moves his hand back with an average speed
of 8 m/s over 14 cm in the horizontal direction. In this way, the player has caused the ball to
stop. Calculate the average impulsive force applied on the hand of the player.

- Ariane 5 is a European Space Agency rocket designed to launch geostationary satellites into orbit and to send payloads to low orbit. Ariane 5 launches from the Kourou space center in French Guiana. To overcome the Earth's gravitational attraction, very powerful engines are required to ensure takeoff. The two side tanks are propellants that work with solid fuel, during takeoff they exert 6975 kN each on the Earth. The central tank, which is the engine of the "cryogenic" main stage, exerts 1074 kN on the Earth. If the mass of Ariane 5 at takeoff is 745 tons, what is the magnitude of the vertical acceleration of Ariane 5, in ?/?^2.
