From what might be a possible scene in the comic book The X-Men, the Juggernaut (mJ) is charging into Colossus (mC) and the two collide. The initial speed of the Juggernaut is vJi and the initial speed of Colossus is vCi. After the collision, the final speed of the Juggernaut is vJf and the final speed of Colossus is vCf as they each bounce off of the other, heading in opposite directions. a. What is the impulse experienced by the Juggernaut? b. What is the impulse experienced by Colossus? c. In your own words, explain how these impulses must compare with each other and how they are related to the average force each superhero experiences during the collision.
A rocket has total mass Mi = 360 kg, including Mfuel = 330 kg of fuel and oxidizer. In interstellar space, it starts from rest at the position x = 0, turns on its engine at time t = 0, and puts out exhaust with relative speed ve = 1 500 m/s at the constant rate k = 2.50 kg/s. The fuel will last for a burn time of Tb = Mfuel/k = 330 kg/(2.5 kg/s) = 132 s. (a) Show that during the burn the velocity of the rocket as a function of time is given by v(t)=veln(1ktMi) (b) Make a graph of the velocity of the rocket as a function of time for times running from 0 to 132 s. (c) Show that the acceleration of the rocket is a(t)=kveMikt (d) Graph the acceleration as a function of time. (c) Show that the position of the rocket is x(t)=ve(Mikt)ln(1ktMi)+vet (f) Graph the position during the burn as a function of time.
During the filming of a certain movie scene, the director wants a small car (whose mass is m1) traveling due east at speed v1 to collide with a small truck (whose mass is m2) traveling north. The director also wants the collision to be arranged so that just afterward, the interlocked vehicles travel straight toward the camera. If the line between the camera and collision makes an angle of theta with respect to north, at what speed v2 should the trucker drive?
A small block of mass m1 = 0.770 kg is released from rest at the top of a curved wedge of mass m2 = 7.50 kg, which sits on a frictionless horizontal surface.

(Enter the magnitude of the velocity.) m/s(b) What is the height h of the wedge? m
A car with mass mc=1270kg is traveling west through an intersection with a speed of vc=14.41m/s when a truck of mass mt=1740kg traveling south at vt=6.63m/s fails to yield. The vehicles collide, they stick together, and they slide on the asphalt which has a coefficient of kinetic friction of μk=0.500. Associate the positive x direction with east and the positive y direction with north. a. Using the symbols provided in the palette below as opposed to their numeric equivalents, enter an expression, in Cartesian unit-vector notation, for the velocity of the vehicles immediately after the collision, as they begin to slide as a composite object. b. How far, in meters, will the vehicles slide after the collision?
You are holding a basketball and standing at rest on top of a skateboard. If you throw the basketball (of mass 0.625 kg) at a velocity of 7 m/s along the horizontal and you and the skateboard together have a mass of 85 kg, what is the magnitude of your velocity just after throwing the ball? Assume you can ignore air resistance, rolling resistance, and friction.
A 1400 kg car moving at 5.3 m/s is initially traveling north along the positive direction of a y axis. After completing a 90 right-hand turn in 4.6 s, the inattentive operator drives into a tree, which stops the car in 350 ms.

What is the magnitude of the average force that acts on the car (c) during the turn and (d) during the collision? (e) What is the direction of the average force during the turn?
A rocket, which is in deep space and initially at rest relative to an inertial reference frame, has a mass of 56.7 × 105 kg, of which 12.9 × 105 kg is fuel. The rocket engine is then fired for 310 s, during which fuel is consumed at the rate of 470 kg/s. The speed of the exhaust products relative to the rocket is 2.16 km/s. (a) What is the rocket's thrust? After the 310 s firing, what are (b) the mass and (c) the speed of the rocket?

Assume there is no friction or drag between the boat and water. 1) If the man now walks to the right edge of the boat, what is the location of the center of mass of the system? 2) After walking to the right edge of the boat, how far has the man moved from his original location?

An object with mass m1 = 3.00 kg is moving along the positive x axis with a speed v1i = 2 m/s straight towards two objects with masses m2 = 2.00 kg and m3 = 4.00 kg, which are initially at rest. When they collide, object 1 comes to rest and object 2 moves away with a speed of v2f = 1.5 m/s at an angle of 50 degrees above the x axis.
