The three balls in the overhead are identical. Balls 2 and 3 touch each other and are aligned perpendicular to the path of ball 1. The velocity of ball 1 has magnitude v0 = 10 m/s and is directed at the contact point of balls 1 and 2. After the collision, what are the (a) speed and (b) direction of the velocity of ball 2, the (c) speed and (d) direction of the velocity of ball 3, and the (e) speed and (f) direction of the velocity of ball 1? (Hint:With friction absent, each impulse is directed along the line connecting the centers of the colliding balls, normal to the colliding surfaces.)
In the arrangement of the figure, billiard ball 1 moving at a speed of 2.1 m/s undergoes a glancing collision with identical billiard ball 2 that is at rest. After the collision, ball 2 moves at speed 1.7 m/s, at an angle of θ2 = 34°. What are (a) the magnitude and (b) the direction (angle θ1) of the velocity of ball 1 after the collision?
A skater of mass 81.0 kg initially moves in a straight line at a speed of 5.10 m/s. The skater approaches a child of mass 43.5 kg, whom he lifts on his shoulders. Assuming there are no external horizontal forces, what is the skater's final velocity?
You hold glider A of mass 0.125 kg and glider B of mass 0.375 kg at rest on an air track with a compressed spring of negligible mass between them. When you release the gliders, the spring pushes them apart. Once the gliders are no longer in contact with the spring, glider A is moving to the right at 0.600 m/s. What is the velocity (magnitude and direction) of glider B at this time?
Suppose a clay model of a koala bear has a mass of 0.235 kg and slides on ice at a speed of 0.720 m/s. It runs into another clay model, which is initially motionless and has a mass of 0.305 kg. Both being soft clay, they naturally stick together. What is their final velocity (in m/s)? (Enter the magnitude.)
