A tennis ball of mass 57.0 g is held just above a basketball of mass 590 g. With their centers vertically aligned, both balls are released from rest at the same time, falling through a distance of 1.20 m, as shown in Figure P6.45. (a) Find the magnitude of the basketballs velocity the instant before the basketball reaches the ground. (b) Assume that an elastic collision with the ground instantaneously reverses the velocity of the basketball so that it collides with the tennis ball just above it. To what height does the tennis ball rebound? Figure P6.45
a man of mass m1 = 70.0 kg is skating at v1 = 8.00 m/s behind his wife of mass m2 = 50.0 kg, who is skating at v2 = 4.00 m/s. Instead of passing her, he inadvertently collides with her. He grabs her around the waist, and they maintain their balance. (a) Sketch the problem with before-and-after diagrams, representing the skaters as blocks. (b) Is the collision best described as elastic, inelastic, or perfectly inelastic? Why? (c) Write the general equation for conservation of momentum in terms of m1, v1, m2, v2, and final velocity vf. (d) Solve the momentum equation for vf. (e) Substitute values, obtaining the numerical value for vf, their speed after the collision.

A car of mass 1 560 kg traveling east and a truck of equal mass traveling north collide and become entangled, moving as a unit at 15.0 m/s and 60.0 north of east. Find the speed of (a) the car, and (b) the truck prior to the collision. (See Section 6.4.)
A car of mass 750 kg traveling at a velocity of 27 m/s in the positive x-direction crashes into the rear of a truck of mass 1 500 kg that is at rest and in neutral at an intersection. If the collision is inelastic and the truck moves forward at 15.0 m/s, what is the velocity of the car after the collision? (See Section 6.3.)
(a) A car traveling due east strikes a car traveling due north at an intersection, and the two move together as a unit. A property owner on the southeast corner of the intersection claims that his fence was torn down in the collision. Should he be awarded damages by the insurance company? Defend your answer, (b) Let the eastward-moving car have a mass of 1.30 103-kg and a speed of 30.0 km/h and the northward-moving car a mass of 1.10 103-kg and a speed of 20.0 km/h. Find the velocity after the collision. Are the results consistent with your answer to part (a)?
A soccer player runs up behind a 0.450-kg soccer ball traveling at 3.20 m/s and kicks it in the same direction as it is moving, increasing its speed to 12.8 m/s. (a) What is the change in the magnitude of the balls momentum? (b) What magnitude impulse did the soccer player deliver to the ball? (c) What magnitude impulse would be required to kick the ball in the opposite direction at 12.8 m/s, instead? (See Section 6.1.)
Two blocks of masses m1 = 2.00 kg and m2 = 4.00 kg are released from rest at a height of h = 5.00 m on a friction less track as shown in Figure P9.77. When they meet on the level portion of the track, they undergo a head-on, elastic collision. Determine the maximum heights to which m, and rise on the curved portion of the track after the collision. \

If a rainstorm drops 1 cm of rain over an area of 10km2 in the period of 1 hour, what is the momentum of the rain that falls in one second? Assume the terminal velocity of a raindrop is 10 m/s.
Two automobiles of equal mass approach an intersection. One vehicle is traveling with velocity 13.0 m/s toward the east, and the other is traveling north with velocity v2i. Neither driver sees the other. The vehicles collide in the intersection and stick together, leaving parallel skid marks at an angle of 55.0 north of east The speed limit for both roads is 35 mi/h, and the driver of the northward-moving vehicle claims he was within the limit when the collision occurred. Is he telling the truth?
