A 15 gram bullet is fired at 610 m/s into a 4.0 kg block that sits at the edge of a 75 centimeter hih table. The bullet embeds itself in the block and carries it off the talbe. How far from the point directly below the table’s edge does the block land?
7. A billiard ball is shot east at 2.30 m/s. A second, identical billiard ball is shot west at 1.80 m/s. The balls has a glancing collision, not a head-on-collision, deflecting the second ball by 90° and sending it north at 1.50 m/s. What is the angle that the velocity of the first ball makes after the collision, with respect to the east direction?
A rocket is fired vertically upward. At the instant it reaches an altitude of 1000 m and a speed of 298 m/s it explodes into three fragments. The 1 fragment has twice the mass of either the 2nd or 3rd fragments and continues to move upward with a speed of 187 m/s. The 20d fragment has a speed of 230 m/s and is moving east right after the explosion. What is the magnitude of velocity of the 30 fragment?
A 15 g bullet is fired at 610 m/s into a 4.0 kg block that sits at the edge of a 75-cm-high table. The bullet embeds itself in the block and carries it off the table. How far from the point directly below the table’s edge does the block land?
One billiard ball is shot east at 2.00 m/s. A second, identical billiard ball is shot west at 1.00 m/s. The balls have a glancing collision, not a head-on collision, deflecting the second ball by 90° and sending it north at 1.41 m/s. What are the speed and direction of the first ball after the collision?
A 76 kg kayaker, initially at rest in a stationary 45 kg kayak, steps out of the kayak and onto the dock. If the boater moves out of the kayak with a velocity of 2.5 m/s to the right what is the final velocity of the kayak?
A 128 kg astronaut and his equipment are initially at rest. To move forward with a velocity of 2.34 m/s, the astronaut fires a 532 N rocket in the backward direction. How long does the astronaut need to fire the rocket?
Comic-strip hero Superman meets an asteroid in outer space and hurls it at 800 m/s, as fast as a bullet. The asteroid is a thousand times more massive than Superman. In the strip, Superman is seen at rest after the throw. Taking physics into account, what would be his recoil velocity?
A hockey puck with a mass of 0.170 kg moving in a straight line at 1.7 m / s collides with an identical puck that is at rest. As a result, the first disk deviates an angle of 30 ° from its original path and continues to move with a speed of 0.45 m / s. What is the angle of the final velocity of the second disk?
A 72.5 kg projectile is used to deflect a 200 kg boulder heading towards a small town. The projectile is travelling 13.4 m/s in a southwest direction (an angle of 280 north of west). While the boulder is travelling at 8.18 m/s due north. After the impact the projectile comes to a complete rest. What is the velocity of the of the boulder?
