A 2.00 1O3-kg car moving cast at 10.0 m/s collides with a 3.00 103-kg car moving north. The cars stick together and move as a unit after the collision, at an angle of 40.0 north of east and a speed of 5.22 m/s. Find the speed and direction of the 3.00 103-kg car before the collision.
An bullet of mass m = 8.00 g is fired into a block of mass M = 250 g that is initially at rest at the edge of a table of height h = 1.00 m (Fig. P6.42). The bullet remains in the block, and after the impact the block lands d = 2.00 m from the bottom of the table. Determine the initial speed of the bullet. Figure P6.42

A bullet with a mass of 0.01 kg is tired horizontally into a block of wood hanging on a string. The bullet sticks in the wood and causes it to swing upward to a height of 0.1 m. If the mass of the wood block is 2 kg, what was the initial speed of the bullet?
A baseball approaches home plate at a speed of 45.0 m/s, moving horizontally just before being hit by a bat. The batter hits a pop-up such that after hitting the bat, the baseball is moving at 55.0 m/s straight up. The ball has a mass of 145 g and is in contact with the bat for 2.00 ms. What is the average vector force the ball exerts on the bat during their interaction?
Two objects of masses m1 = 0.56 kg m2 = 0.88 kg are placed on a horizontal frictionless surface and a compressed spring of force constant k = 280 N/m is placed between them as in Figure P6.28a. Neglect the mass of the spring. The spring is not attached to either object and is compressed a distance of 9.8 cm. If the objects are released from rest, find the final velocity of each object as shown in Figure P6.28b. Figure P6.28
