4) A .2 kg meter stick at rest in outer space is hit by a .1 kg ball of clay at one end. The collision is perfectly inelastic and the clay and stick move and rotate as a single object. The initial velocity of the clay is 20 m/s in a direction perpendicular to the long axis of the stick. a) Use conservation of momentum to find the velocity of the center of mass of the stick/clay object after the collision.

A 2.00-kg particle has a velocity (2.00i3.00j)m/s, and a 3.00-kg particle has a velocity (1.00i+6.00j)m/s. Find (a) the velocity of the center of mass and (b) the total momentum of the system.
Two automobiles of equal mass approach an intersection. One vehicle is traveling with velocity 13.0 m/s toward the east, and the other is traveling north with velocity v2i. Neither driver sees the other. The vehicles collide in the intersection and stick together, leaving parallel skid marks at an angle of 55.0 north of east The speed limit for both roads is 35 mi/h, and the driver of the northward-moving vehicle claims he was within the limit when the collision occurred. Is he telling the truth?

A billiard ball, labeled 1, moving horizontally strikes another billiard ball, labeled 2, at rest. Before impact, ball 1 was moving at a speed of 3.00 m/s, and after impact it is moving at 0.50 m/s at 50 from the original direction. If the two balls have equal masses of 300 g, what is the velocity of the ball 2 after the impact?
Review. Two identical hard spheres, each of mass m and radius r, are released from rest in otherwise empty space with their centers separated by the distance R. They are allowed to collide under the influence of their gravitational attraction.
