A 5.50−kg bowling ball moving at 9.00 m/s collides with a 0.850−kg bowling pin, which is scattered at an angle of 15.8∘ to the initial direction of the bowling ball and with a speed of 15.0 m/s. a. Calculate the final velocity (magnitude and direction) of the bowling ball. b. Is the collision elastic?

Starting with an initial speed of 6.00 m/s at a height of 0.321 m, 32.94−kg ball swings downward and strikes a 5.65−kg ball that is at rest, as the drawing shows. (a) Using the principle of conservation of mechanical energy, find the speed of the 2.94−kg ball just before impact. (b) Assuming that the collision is elastic, find the velocity (magnitude and direction) of the 2.94 kg ball just after the collision. (c) Assuming that the collision is elastic, find the velocity (magnitude and direction) of the 5.65−kg ball just after the collision. (d) How high does the 2.94−kg ball swing after the collision, ignoring air resistance? (e) How high does the 5.65−kg ball swing after the collision, ignoring air resistance?

A ballistic (m = 500 g) is traveling with a speed v0 = 5 m/s directly towards the middle of a thin rod⁡(M = 2 kg, L = 2 m), as shown below. The ballistic collides with and sticks to the rod, causing it to swing about a hinge at an angle ϕ, as shown below. The moment of inertia of a rod rotating about one of its ends is Irod = 13 ML2. Part (a) Which of the following quantities are conserved during the collision? (4 points) (a) Mechanical Energy (b) Linear Momentum (c) Angular Momentum (d) Net Force Part (b) Find the angular speed of the ballistic-rod system after the collision. (8 points) Part (c) Determine the maximum angle to which the ballistic and rod swing after the collision. (8 points) Part (d) If you wanted the ballistic and rod to swing higher, should you aim the ballistic higher or lower? Defend your reasoning with a conceptual argument. (5 points)
