Current Attempt in Progress A 5.61-g bullet is moving horizontally with a velocity of +354 m/s, where the sign + indicates that it is moving to the right (see part a of the drawing). The bullet is approaching two blocks resting on a horizontal frictionless surface. Air resistance is negligible. The bullet passes completely through the first block (an inelastic collision) and embeds itself in the second one, as indicated in part b. Note that both blocks are moving after the collision with the bullet. The mass of the first block is 1195 g, and its velocity is +0.709 m/s after the bullet passes through it.

Nikola Jokic is running at 8.5 m/s directly toward the basket when he jumps into the air to dunk the ball. He is only able to maintain a constant horizontal jumping velocity of 85% of his running velocity during the entire flight phase of the jump. (a) What does his vertical takeoff velocity in m/s have to be when he first leaves the ground so that his center of mass is able to achieve a maximal vertical displacement of 0.7 meters during the jump? (b) How far from the basket (measured in the horizontal direction) in meters must he start his jump so that he reaches his maximum vertical jump displacement at the same time that he reaches the basket?

Two cars, both of mass m, collide and stick together. Prior to the collision, one car had been traveling north at speed 2v, while the second was traveling at speed v at an angle ϕ south of east (as indicated in the figure). After the collision, the two-car system travels at speed vfinal at an angle θ east of north. (Figure 1) What is the angle θ with respect to north made by the velocity vector of the two cars after the collision? Express your answer in terms of ϕ.
Two ice skaters stand together as illustrated in Figure (a) below. They "push off" and travel directly away from each other, the boy with a velocity of v = 0.73 m/s to the left. If the boy weighs 701 N and the girl weighs 479 N, what is the girl's velocity after they push off? (Consider the ice to be frictionless. Enter the magnitude only.) m/s
Two cars, both of mass m, collide and stick together. Prior to the collision, one car had been traveling north at speed 2v, while the second was travelling at speed v at an angle theta south of east (as indicated in the figure).

Find the magnitude of the speed vfinal in terms of v and theta.
There are no numerical values assigned to the variables in this problem. A block of mass m1 is projected with a velocity vi at the top of the wedge. When the block reaches the horizontal surface its velocity vf to the right while the wedge moves with a velocity v2 of to the left. (a). What is the velocity of the once it reaches the horizontal surface? Your answer must be in terms of relevant variables. (b). What is the height h the wedge in terms of the relevant variables?

A projectile fired into the air suddenly explodes into several fragments (as shown). (A) What can be said about the motion of the center of mass of the system made up of all the fragments after the explosion? (B) If the projectile did not explode, it would land at a distance R from its launch point. Suppose the projectile explodes and splits into two pieces of equal mass. One piece lands at a distance 2R to the right of the launch point. Where does the other piece land?
A 0.8 kg block of wood is sliding across a floor at 2 m/s when a half-gram nail from a nail gun travelling 67 m/s horizontally at an angle 35° relative to the direction of the block embeds itself into the wood. (So, the 35° angle is with respect to the x-axis, with x and y both being in the horizontal plane.) (a) What would be the velocity of the block/nail system just after impact? Find also the magnitude and direction of the velocity. Assume that the impact is so fast that friction between the block and the floor can be ignored. (b) How much energy was lost during this collision?
