A 2.00-kg object hangs, at rest, on a 1.00-m-long string attached to the ceiling. A 100-g object is fired with a speed of 20 m/s at the 2.00-kg object, and the two objects collide and stick together in a totally inelastic collision. Write an equation for the motion of the system after the collision. Assume air resistance is negligible.

A 4.5 kg puffer fish expands to 40 of its mass by taking in water. When the puffer fish is threatened, it releases the water toward the threat to move quickly forward. What is the ratio of the speed of the puffer fish forward to the speed of the expelled water backwards?
A child sleds down a hill and collides at 5.6 m/s into a stationary sled that is identical to his. The child is launched forward at the same speed, leaving behind the two sleds that lock together and slide forward more slowly. What is the speed of the two sleds after this collision?
A 1.0 kg steel ball and a 2.0 m cord of negligible mass make u simple pendulum that can pivot without friction about the point O, as in Figure 3. This pendulum is released from rest in a horizontal position, and when the ball is at its lowest point it strikes a 1.0 kg block sitting at rest on a shelf. Assume that the collision is perfectly elastic and that the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and shelf is 0.10.(A) What is the velocity of the block just after impact?(B) How far foes the bock slide before coming to rest (assuming that the shelf is long enough)?
In this problem we will consider the collision of two cars initially moving at right angles. We assume that after the collision the cars stick together and travel off as a single unit. The collision is therefore completely inelastic Two cars of masses my and me collide at an intersection. Before the collision, car 1 was traveling eastward at a speed of v1, and car 2 was traveling northward at a speed of v. (Figure 1)After the collision, the two cars stick together and travel off in the direction shown.
Can you please solve this problem showing step by step on a picture. A 0.500 kg block is released from rest at the top of a frictionlesstrack 2.50 m above the top of the table.
