A 4.87 kg particle-like object moves in a plane with velocity components vx = 89.3 m/s and vy = 47.3 m/s as it passes through the point with (x, y) coordinates of (1.71, -1.11) m.

A space of mass 120 kg is going to use a planet for a gravitational assist- that is, use the planet's gravity to change its direction of travel without expending any fuel. It is initially moving at a velocity of 280 m/s and at an angle of theta initial = 53 degrees, at a distance of 11500 km from the center of the planet. Given an expression for the angular momentum of the spacecraft using the coordinate system specified in terms of m, r0, v0, theta initial, and vector units i, j, k If the spaceship whips around the planet to the other side so that the angle is theta 35 and is moving at 95 m/s, how far, in kilometers, from the planet is it?
Consider the coordinate system in the diagram bellow; the z axis points out of the page. At the point (-d, 0, 0) a ball of mass m is initially (at t= 0) at rest, but it is dropped under the face of gravity, near the Earth. We ignore air resistance as usual, and treat ball as a point mass. 1.c) What is the angular momentum relative to the origin of the coordinate system?

A uniform rod of mass 190 g and length 100 cm is free to rotate in a horizontal plane around a fixed vertical axis through its center, perpendicular to its length. Two small beads, each of mass 24 g, are mounted in grooves along the rod. Initially, the two beads are held by catches on opposite sides of the rod's center, 12 cm from the axis of rotation. With the beads in this position, the rod is rotating with an angular velocity of 15.0 rad/s. When the catches are released, the beads slide outward along the rod. (a)What is the rod's angular velocity (in rad/s) when the beads reach the ends of the rod?

(Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.) ________rad/s
