Two blocks of masses m and 3m are placed on a frictionless, horizontal surface. A light spring is attached to the more massive block, and the blocks are pushed together with the spring between them (Fig. P9.5). A cord initially holding the blocks together is burned; after that happens, the block of mass 3m moves to the right with a speed of 2.00 m/s. (a) What is the velocity of the block of mass m? (b) Find the systems original elastic potential energy, taking m = 0.350 kg. (c) Is the original energy in the spring or in the cord? (d) Explain your answer to part (c). (e) Is the momentum of the system conserved in the bursting-apart process? Explain how that is possible considering (f) there are large forces acting and (g) there is no motion before-hand and plenty of motion afterward? Figure P9.5
A glider of mass m is free to slide along a horizontal air track. It is pushed against a launcher at one end of the track. Model the launcher as a light spring of force constant k compressed by a distance x. The glider is released from rest. (a) Show that the glider attains a speed of v = x(k/m)1/2. (b) Show that the magnitude of the impulse imparted to the glider is given by the expression I = x(km)1/2. (c) Is more work done on a cart with a large or a small mass?
A particle is suspended from a post on top of a can by a light string of length L. as shown in Figure P9.57a. The can and particle are initially moving to the right at constant speed the with the string vertical. The can suddenly comes to rest when it runs into and sticks to a bumper as shown in Figure P9.57b. The suspended panicle swings through an angle . (a) Show that the original speed of the cart can be computed from. vi=2gL(1cos) (b) If the bumper is still exerting a horizontal force on the cart when the hanging panicle is at its maximum angle forward from the vertical. at what moment does the bumper stop exerting a horizontal force?
A skater is using very low-friction rollerblades. A friend throws a Frisbee to her, on the straight line along which she is coasting. Describe each of the following events as an elastic, an inelastic, or a perfectly inelastic collision between the skater and the Frisbee. (a) She catches the Frisbee and holds it. (b) She tries to catch the Frisbee, but it bounces off her hands and falls to the ground in front of her. (c) She catches the Frisbee and immediately throws it back with the same speed (relative to the ground) to her friend.

A bullet with a mass of 0.01 kg is tired horizontally into a block of wood hanging on a string. The bullet sticks in the wood and causes it to swing upward to a height of 0.1 m. If the mass of the wood block is 2 kg, what was the initial speed of the bullet?
Two gliders are set in motion on a horizontal air track. A light spring of force constant k is attached to the back end of the second glider. As shown in Figure P9.41, the first glider, of mass m1, moves to the right with speed v1, and the second glider, of mass m2, moves more slowly to the right with speed v2. When m1 collides with the spring attached to m2, the spring compresses by a distance xmax, and the gliders then move apart again. In terms of v1, v2, m1, m2, and k, find (a) the speed v at maximum compression, (b) the maximum compression xmax, and (c) the velocity of each glider after m1 has lost contact with the spring.

Review. A 60.0-kg person running at an initial speed of 4.00 m/s jumps onto a 120-kg cart initially at rest (Fig. P9.37). The person slides on the carts top surface and finally comes to rest relative to the cart. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the person and the cart is 0.400. Friction between the cart and ground can be ignored. (a) Find the final velocity of the person and cart relative to the ground. (b) Find the friction force acting on the person while he is sliding across the top surface of the cart. (c) How long does the friction force act on the person? (d) Find the change in momentum of the person and the change in momentum of the cart. (c) Determine the displacement of the person relative to the ground while he is sliding on the cart. (f) Determine the displacement of the cart relative to the ground while the person is sliding. (g) Find the change in kinetic energy of the person. (h) Find the change in kinetic energy of the cart. (i) Explain why the answers to (g) and (h) differ. (What kind of collision is this one, and what accounts for the loss of mechanical energy) Figure P9.37
Ezra (m = 25.0 kg) has a tire swing and wants to swing as high as possible. He thinks that his best option is to run as fast as he can and jump onto the tire at full speed. The tire has a mass of 10.0 kg and hangs 3.75 m straight down from a tree branch. Ezra stands back 10.0 m and accelerates to a speed of 3.50 m /s before jumping onto the tire swing. a. How fast are Ezra and the tire moving immediately after he jumps onto the swing? b. How high does the tire travel above its initial height?

(c) Find the final kinetic energy of the incident 2.0-g particle in the situations described in parts (a) and (b). In which case does the incident particle lose more kinetic energy?
A 0.240-kg billiard ball that is moving at 3.00 m/s strikes the bumper of a pool table and bounces straight back at 2.40 m/s (80% of its original speed). The collision lasts 0.0150 s.

(a) A 75-kg man steps out a window and falls (from rest) 1.0 m to a sidewalk. What is his speed just before his feet strike the pavement? (b) If the man falls with his knees and ankles locked, the only cushion for his fall is an approximately 0.50-cm give in the pads of his feet. Calculate the average force exerted on him by the ground during this 0.50 cm of travel. This average force is sufficient to cause damage to cartilage in the joints or to break bones.
