Question

Consider a 33.2 kg block of wood sliding with 2.8 m/s to the left (in the negative xdirection) on an extremely slippery surface. At about 4.5 s, you throw a 9.4 kg lump of clay to the left, directly at the back of the block of wood. The lump of clay collides with and completely sticks to the block of wood, so that they both end up moving to the left with 5.1 m/s. a) Calculate the x-component of the lump of clay’s velocity right before it hits the block of wood. b) Qualitatively, draw a graph of the x-component of the net force acting on the block of wood vs. time. c) Qualitatively, draw a graph of the x-component of the momentum of the block of wood vs. time.
