Given practice problem with answer key but having a hard time solving it: Answer for part c: 0.71 m/s In a game of pool, the cue ball strikes the black 8 ball and sends it into the cornerpocket. The cue ball initially travels at v = 1 m/s in the x direction. After the collision, the 8ball makes an angle of θ = 45◦ with the x axis and is traveling at a speed v2. The cue ball is nowmoving at an unknown angle θ1 with respect to the x axis at a speed v1. You may assume thatthe balls have the same mass and that the collision is elastic. (a) Write the expression for energyconservation. (b) Write equations for momentum conservation. (c) Find the final speed of the 8ball

PLEASE ANSWER PART 2 . In the World Pond Hockey tournament held in Plaster Rock, NB, a puck on the ice travels 20.0 m [25° W of N], gets deflected, and travels 30.0 m [35° N of W].1. Determine where the puck will end up with respect to its starting point, e.g., the puck's total displacement, using the three different methods discussed.2. In the same tournament, a player is positioned 35 m [40° W of S] of the net. He shoots the puck 25 m [E] to a teammate. What second displacement does the puck have to travel to make it to the net? Find the answer using the component method and one of the other two methods discussed.
Hi, I'm confused on how to solve this because the answer I got was separate from the answer key so I do not know if I am right or if I am wrong. This is the question, I would greatly appreciate your assistance. Thank you. A projectile is shot straight up with a velocity of 58.8 m/s. (Neglect air friction). 1.Calculate the velocity of the projectile 1.5 s after firing. 2.How high above the gun is the projectile 1.5 s after firing? 3. How high is the projectile 9.0 s after firing? 4. Calculate the velocity of the projectile 9.0 s after firing.
The solution is incomplete. Pls. read the directions. I said in GRESA format.Directions: Illustrate and solve the following problems in a short bond paper. Show the complete solution (in GRESA format), always include the SI units on your solution, express your answer in two decimal places and box your final answer.2. The driver of an SUV (m = 1800 kg) moving at a velocity of 3.50 m/s isn’t paying attention and rear ends a car (m = 1200 kg) that is at rest as it waits for the red light to turn green. On impact, both drivers lock their brakes. The SUV and car stick together and travel beyond the line. What is the velocity of the cars after the collision?
