Consider a box that explodes into two pieces while moving to the right along an x-axis. If one piece, with mass m1, ends up moving to the right after the explosion, then as shown in the figure below, the second piece, with mass m2, could end up (a) moving to the right, (b) moving to the left, or (c) at rest.

Two particles of masses m1 and m2 , move uniformly in different circles of radii R1 and R2 R2 about origin in the x, y-plane. The x- and y-coordinates of the center of mass and that of particle 1 are given as follows (where length is in meters and tin seconds): x1(t)=4cos(2t) , y1(t)=4sin(2t) and: xCM(t)=4cos(2t) , yCM(t)=3sin(2t) . a. Find the radius of the circle in which particle 1 moves. b. Find the x- and y-coordinates of particle 2 and the radius of the circle this particle moves.
Find the center of mass of a rectangular material of length a and width b made up of a material of nonuniform density. The density is such that when the rectangle is placed in the xy-plane, the density is given by (x,y)=0xy .
Find the center of mass of a rectangular block of length a and width b that has a nonuniform density such that when the rectangle is placed in the x, y-plane with one corner at the origin and the block placed in the first quadrant with the two edges along the x- and y-axes, the density is given by (x,y)=0x , where 0 is a constant.
Find the center of mass of a rod of length L whose mass density changes from one end to the other quadratically. That is, if the rod is laid out along the x-axis with one end at the origin and the other end at x=L , the density is given by (x)=0+(10)(xL)2 , where 0 and 1 are constant values.
An object A moving with velocity v collides with a stationary object B. After the collision, A is moving with velocity 2 1 v and B with velocity 3 2 v. Find the ratio of their masses. If, instead of bouncing apart, the two bodies stuck together after the collision, with what velocity would they then move?
Two manned satellites approach one another at a relative speed of 0.500 m/s, intending to dock. The first has a mass of 4.50 ✕ 103 kg, and the second a mass of 7.50 ✕ 103 kg. If the two satellites collide elastically rather than dock, what is their final relative velocity in meters per second? (Adopt the reference frame in which the second satellite is initially at rest and assume that the positive direction is directed from the second satellite towards the first satellite.)
Consider two cars that are on course for a head-on collision. If they have masses m1 = 1,100 kg and m2 = 1,800 kg and are both traveling at 27 m/s, what is the magnitude of the total momentum?
Given a force of 200N acting upon a system of two crates A and B which initially start from rest, slides on the horizontal axis and which have masses of 40kg and 30kg respectively, find the magnitude of the net impulse of the system after 5 seconds if the coefficient of kinetic friction between the crates and the surface is 0.25
To keep the calculations fairly simple, but still reasonable, we shall model a human leg that is 92.0 cm long (measured from the hip joint) by assuming that the upper leg and the lower leg (which includes the foot) have equal lengths and that each of them is uniform. For a 70.0 kg person, the mass of the upper leg is 8.60 kg, while that of the lower leg (including the foot) is 5.25 kg. Find the location of the center of mass of this leg, relative to the hip joint, if it is (a) fully extended, and (b) bent at the knee to form a right angle with the upper leg.
Ricardo, of mass 80 kg, and Carmelita, who is lighter, are enjoying Lake Merced at dusk in a 30 kg canoe.When the canoe is at rest in the placid water, they exchange seats, which are 3.0 m apart and symmetrically located with respect to the canoe’s center. If the canoe moves 40 cm horizontally relative to a pier post, what is Carmelita’s mass?
Two objects, both with a mass of 1.94 kg are sliding across a horizontal, frictionless surface toward each other. If mass 1 has an initial velocity of 4.37 m/s i and mass 2 has an initial velocity of -2.1 m/s i, what is the final speed of the masses if they undergo a perfectly inelastic collision? Assume that total momentum is conserved.
