Your physical education teacher throws a baseball to you at a certain speed and you catch it. The teacher is next going to throw you a medicine ball whose mass is ten times the mass of the baseball. You are given the following choices: You can have the medicine ball thrown with (a) the same speed as the baseball, (b) the same momentum, or (c) the same kinetic energy. Rank these choices from easiest to hardest to catch.
Check Your Understanding There is a second solution to the system of equations solved in this example (because the energy equation is quadratic): v1.f=-2.5m/s , v2.f=0 . This solution is unacceptable on physical grounds; what’s with it?
Assume that the force of a bow on an arrow behaves like the spring force. In aiming the arrow, an archer pulls the bow back 50 cm and holds it in position with a force of 150 N. If the mass of the arrow is 50 g and the “spring” is massless, what is the speed of the arrow immediately after it leaves the bow?

1. It's 5:00 PM and Kurdapya needs to finish her physics module, one of the problems tates that a rocket and a spacecraft were attached and has a combined mass of 3.8 × 10⁵kg and is to reach a speed of 12.3 km/s, she needs to know how much kinetic energy will it have. 2. The next day, Kurdapya craved for some riped guava fruit. She has to climb the guava tree however she realized that she is already 65 kg and the tree is 7.2 meters high. Let us calculate the power required for her to climb the tree in 15 seconds.

A Vulcan spaceship has a mass of 6.50 × 104 kg and a Romulan spaceship is twice as massive. Both have engines that generate the same total force of 9.50 × 106 N. If each spaceship fires its engine for the same amount of time, starting from rest and ignoring any change in mass due to whatever is expelled by the engines, calculate the energy of the Vulcan spaceship if the engines are fired for 102 s.
A 1000 kg spacecraft is approaching Jupiter (which is at the origin). The position of the spacecraft is given by the vector RSC = (0.0,-2.533) x 106km. The velocity is given by VSC= (+6.00, +8.00) km/sec. The mass of Jupiter, (MJ=318 MEarth) and MEarth = 5.97 x 1024 kg.
