The mass of the blue puck in Figure P9.44 is 20.0% greater than the mass of the green puck. Before colliding, the pucks approach each other with momenta of equal magnitudes and opposite directions, and the green puck has an initial speed of 10.0 m/s. Find the speeds the pucks have after the collision if half the kinetic energy of the system becomes internal energy during the collision.

Initially, ball 1 rests on an incline of height h, and ball 2 rests on an incline of height h/2 as shown in Figure P11.40. They are released from rest simultaneously and collide elastically in the trough of the track. If m2 = 4 m1, m1 = 0.045 kg, and h = 0.65 m, what is the velocity of each ball after the collision?
A ball of mass 250 g is thrown with an initial velocity of 25 m/s at an angle of 30 with the horizontal direction. Ignore air resistance. What is the momentum of the ball after 0.2 s? (Do this problem by finding the components of the momentum first, and then constructing the magnitude and direction of the momentum vector from the components.)
