A 0.0102-kg bullet is fired straight up at a falling wooden block that has a mass of 3.47 kg. The bullet has a speed of 748 m/s when it strikes the block. The block originally was dropped from rest from the top of a building and had been falling for a time t when the collision with the bullet occurs. As a result of the collision, the block (with the bullet in it) reverses direction, rises, and comes to a momentary halt at the top of the building. Find the time t. Number Units

A 750 kg hammer is used to drive a 2500 kg pile into some loosely packed sand. The hammer is released from a height of 2.5 m above the top of the pile and is seen to rebound to a maximum height of 0.15 m above the point of impact. Determine:(a) the velocity of the pile immediately after impact,(b) the coefficient of restitution, and(c) the average force exerted by the hammer on the pile if the impact takes place over 0.08 s.
An engineer is studying the impacts of frontal car collisions on the occupants.If a 1900-lb car with velocity vA = 30 mph collides head on with a 2800-lb car with velocity vb =20 mph, the coefficient of restitution of the impact is e = 0.15, then determine the velocities ofeach car after the collision. Assume car A and car B are on a flat surface, with car A traveling tothe right and car B traveling to the left.

A vehicle of mass 65 tonnes is moving at 85kmph. It collides with a second vehicle of mass 30 tonnes moving in the opposite direction at 40 kmph. After the collision the second vehicle has changed its speed to 2100 cm/s in the opposite direction as before the collision. Find: (i) the velocity of the first vehicle after the collision (ii) the coefficient of restitution.

A piece of mass M is hung by a string of length L ‌. A ball of mass m = M / 4 has a velocity V• when it hits the piece and sinks into it. As soon as the progress of the bullet in the piece stops completely, the string tension is 2.5Mg. What is the velocity V•?
A 100 kg body moves to the right at 5 m/s and another body of mass of W moves to the left at 3 m/s. they meet each other and after impact, the 100 kg body rebounds to the left at 2 m/s. Determine the mass of the other body if the coefficient of restitution is 0.50.
Please answer this NEATLY, COMPLETELY, and CORRECTLY for an UPVOTE. A 0.5-kg ball A is released from rest when the cord attached to it is horizontally placed. When ball A reaches its lowest point, it collides with the stationary ball B (0.4 kg). Right after the collision, ball B gained a velocity of vB3 = 4.65 m/s as shown. Then, ball B falls until it hits the wall that is located at a horizontal distance of 1.5 m. Determine the length L of the cord. Also, find the velocity of ball B, vB5, just after it hits the wall. The coefficient of restitution for all the collisions is e = 0.8.
A billiard player sends the cue ball toward a group of three balls that are initially at rest and in contact with one another. After the cue ball strikes the group, the four balls scatter, each traveling in a different direction with different speeds as shown in the figure below. If each ball has the same mass, 0.16 kg, determine the total momentum of the system consisting of the four balls immediately after the collision. (Assume v1 = 0.33 m/s, θ1 = 70°, v2 = 0.49 m/s, θ2 = 30°, v3 = 0.21 m/s, v4 = 0.48 m/s.) magnitude ? (in kg m/s^2) direction ? (in degrees counterclockwise from the + x-axis)
An 1800-kg pile driver is used to drive a steel beam into the ground. The pile driver falls 4.00 m before coming into contact with the top of the beam, and it drives the beam 9.0 cm farther into the ground as it comes to rest. Using energy considerations, calculate the average force the beam exerts on the pile driver while the pile driver is brought to rest. ________ n A 66.0 kg base runner begins his slide into second base when he is moving at a speed of 3.9 m/s.
