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.

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.

A space probe, initially at rest, undergoes an internal mechanical malfunction and breaks into three pieces. One piece of mass ml = 48.0 kg travels in the positive x-direction at 12.0 m/s, and a second piece of mass m2 = 62.0 kg travels in the xy-plane at an angle of 105 at 15.0 m/s. The third piece has mass m3 = 112 kg. (a) Sketch a diagram of the situation, labeling the different masses and their velocities, (b) Write the general expression for conservation of momentum in the x- and y-directions in terms of m1, m2, m3, v1, v2 and v3 and the sines and cosines of the angles, taking to be the unknown angle, (c) Calculate the final x-components of the momenta of m1 and m2. (d) Calculate the final y-components of the momenta of m1 and m2. (e) Substitute the known momentum components into the general equations of momentum for the x- and y-directions, along with the known mass m3.

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?
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?
