A cube of side a is cut out of another cube of side b as shown in the figure below. b a Find the location of the center of mass of the structure. (Use any variable or symbol stated above as necessary. Hint: Think of the missing part as a negative mass overlapping a positive mass. Assume the origin is in the bottom left corner shared by both cubes, and assume all values are positive with the x-axis to the right, the y-axis extending back into the page parallel to the sides of the cube, and the z-axis pointing up along the page.)

Initially, ball 1 rests on an incline of height h, and ball 2 rests on an incline of height h/2 as shown in the figure below. They are released from rest simultaneously and collide elastically in the trough of the track. If m2 = 9m1, m1 = 0.040 kg, and h = 0.35 m, what is the velocity of each ball after the collision? (Assume the balls slide but do not roll. Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer. Positive is to the right, and negative is to the left. Due to the nature of this problem, do not use rounded intermediate values in your calculations—

A uniform square of mass 4 kg and sides 2 m and negligible thickness is centered at the origin. Determine thecenter of mass of this square using symmetry arguments. Suppose then that the 1 m × 1 m section in thefourth quadrant is removed. Where is the center of mass of this new object? Do this calculation by treatingthe mass of each remaining 1 m × 1 m section as residing at its center of mass and then fnding the centers ofmass of these “masses”.

If the rocket sled shown in the previous problem starts with only one rocket burning, what is the magnitude of this acceleration? Assume that the mass of the system is 2.10103kg , the thrust Tis 2.40104N , and the force of friction opposing the motion is 650.0 N. (b) Why is the acceleration n one-fourth of what it is with all rockets burning?

A rod is positioned along the z-axis such that one of its ends is at z = L, and the other one is at z = 2L. The linear mass density of the rod is 2/z3. Find the center of mass of this rod, and express your answer as a multiple of L, to three decimal places. For example, if the center of mass is at z = 0.5L, enter 0.500. Hint: when simplifying, keep everything in fractions!
Two billiard balls of equal mass undergo a perfectly elastic head-on collision. If one ball's initial speed was 2.50 m/sm/s, and the other's was 4.00 m/sm/s in the opposite direction, what will be their velocities after the collision? Enter your answers numerically separated by a comma. Enter positive value if the direction of the velocity is the same as the direction of the initial velocity of the first ball, and negative value if the direction of the velocity is opposite to the direction of the initial velocity of the first ball.

Use the worked example above to help you solve this problem. A car with mass 1.53 103 kg traveling east at a speed of 26.8 m/s collides at an intersection with a 2.44 103 kg van traveling north at a speed of 18.6 m/s, as shown in the figure. Find the magnitude and direction of the velocity of the wreckage after the collision, assuming that the vehicles undergo a perfectly inelastic collision (that is, they stick together) and assuming that friction between the vehicles and the road can be neglected. magnitude= ? m/s direction= ?° counterclockwise from the +x-axis
