How much fuel would be needed for a 1000-kg rocket (this is its mass with no fuel) to take off from Earth and reach 1000 m/s in 30 s? The exhaust speed is 1000 m/s.
A load of gravel is dumped straight down into a 30000-kg freight car coasting at 2.2 m/s on a straight section of a railroad. If the freight car’s speed after receiving the gravel is 1.5 m/s, what mass of gravel did it receive?
A billiard ball, labeled 1, moving horizontally strikes another billiard ball, labeled 2, at rest. Before impact, ball 1 was moving at a speed of 3.00 m/s, and after impact it is moving at 0.50 m/s at 50 from the original direction. If the two balls have equal masses of 300 g, what is the velocity of the ball 2 after the impact?
A dart of mass m is fired at and sticks into a block of mass M that is initially at rest on a rough, horizontal surface. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface is k. After the collision, the dart and the block slide a distance D before coming to rest. If the dart were fired horizontally, what would its speed be immediately before impact with the block?

If a rainstorm drops 1 cm of rain over an area of 10km2 in the period of 1 hour, what is the momentum of the rain that falls in one second? Assume the terminal velocity of a raindrop is 10 m/s.
A superball of mass M and a marble of mass m are dropped from a height h with the marble just on top of the superball. A superball has a coefficient of restitution of nearly 1 (i.e., its collision is essentially elastic). Ignore the sizes of the superball and marble. The superball collides with the floor, rebounds, and smacks the marble, which moves back up. How high does the marble go if all the motion is vertical? How high does the superball go?
