A point mass m1 = 0.020 kg located at the top corner of a smooth hemispherical bowl m, R. of radius R = 0.450 m is released from rest and hits another point mass m2 = 0.010 kg m2 which is at rest at the bottom of the bowl as shown in the figure. If two masses stick together after the collision, how high above do they go relative to the bottom of the bowl? (Ignore the friction between the %3D masses and the surface of the bowl and take g = 9.8 m/s.)

Two projectiles of mass m1 and m2 , are fired at the same speed but in opposite directions from two launch sites separated by a distance D. They both reach the same spot in their highest point and strike there. As a result of the impact they stick together and move as a single body afterwards. Find the place they will land.
In an elastic collision of two particles with masses m1 and m2, the initial velocities are u1 and u2 = u1. If the initial kinetic energies of the two particles are equal, find the conditions on u1/u2 and m1/m2 such that m1 is at rest after the collision. Examine both cases for the sign of .
A projectile of mass 2.0 kg is fired in the air at an angle of 40.0 to the horizon at a speed of 50.0 m/s. At the highest point in its flight, the projectile breaks into three parts of mass 1.0 kg, 0.7 kg, and 0.3 kg. The 1.0-kg part falls straight down after breakup with an initial speed of 10.0 m/s, the 0.7-kg part moves in the original forward direction, and the 0.3-kg part goes straight up. Launch a. Find the speeds of the 0.3-kg and 0.7-kg pieces immediately after the break-up. b. How high from the break-up point does the 0.3-kg piece go before coming to rest? c. Where does the 0.7-kg piece land relative to where it was fired from?
A proton traveling at 3.0106m/s scatters elastically from an initially stationary alpha particle and is deflected at an angle of 85 with respect to its initial velocity. Given that the alpha particle has four times the mass of the proton, what percent of its initial kinetic energy does the proton retain after the collision?

Particle A of mass 264 g initially at rest slides from the top of a smooth quarter-of-a- circle track with radius 1.67 m (see figure). Upon reaching the bottom of the track, it collides with particle B traveling in opposite direction with speed 3.25 m/s; particle B has a mass of 198 g. If the collision is (perfectly) elastic, how high could A get up along the quarter-of-a-circle track?
