3.5 m above the floor. A compressed-air cannon sits on the floor.
4.0 m to one side of the point directly under the ball. When a
button is pressed, the ball drops and. simultaneously, the cannon
fires a 25 g plastic ball. The two balls collide 1.0 m above the floor.

In interstellar space, it starts from rest at the position x = 0, turns on its engine at time t = 0, and puts out exhaust with relative speed ve = 1 500 m/s at the constant rate k = 2.50 kg/s. The fuel will last for a burn time of Tb = Mfuel/k = 330 kg/(2.5 kg/s) = 132 s.

- A model rocket is shot straight up and explodes at the top of its trajectory into three pieces as viewed from above and shown in Figure P10.44. The masses of the three pieces are mA = 100.0 g, mB = 20.0 g, and mC = 30.0 g. Immediately after the explosion, piece A is traveling at 1.50 m/s, and piece B is traveling at 7.00 m/s in a direction 30 below the negative x axis as shown. What is the velocity of piece C? FIGURE P10.44 Problems 44 and 45. 45. We can use the conservation of momentum (Eq. 10.9). The total initial momentum is zero, so the sum of all the final momenta should be zero. mAvAf+mBvBf+mCvCf=0 This velocities for A and B can be expressed as vectors. vAf=1.50jm/svBf=(7.00im/s)cos30(7.00jm/s)sin30=(6.06i3.50j)m/s We can now solve the momentum equation.
