A ball of clay of mass m1 = 10 kg and horizontal speed of V1 = +10 m/s collides head-on (that is they are traveling along the same line, but in opposite direction) with a ball of putty of mass m2 = 10 kg and a horizontal speed of V2 = −9. The two balls stick together. How fast and in which direction ("+" or "-") are they moving after the collision? Your Answer: Answer units

Two pieces of clay, with masses m1 = 0.5 kg and m2 = 0.7 kg are moving as shown above, both with the same speed of 5.2 m/s. The angle is given by θ = 33∘. The two pieces collide and stick together. What is the speed of the combined 1.2 kg lump of clay after collision? How much kinetic energy was lost in the collision?

A ballistic of mass m = 100 g is traveling at a speed v towards a box of mass M = 1 kg sitting at rest. The ballistic collides with and sticks to the box, and the two move as a single body with a speed v1 along a rough, horizontal surface. The coefficient of friction between the box and the surface is μk = 0.33. Following the collision, the two objects travel a distance D = 8 m before coming to rest. See the figure below. Part (a) Is the mechanical energy of the ballistic-box system conserved during the collision? Defend your reasoning with a conceptual argument. Part (b) Determine the initial speed v at which the ballistic was traveling. For this question, you must use the concepts of work, energy, and momentum in order to receive full credit. Part (c) Suppose instead, after the collision, the ballistic-block system slides up an incline (μk is still 0.33). In order for the ballistic-box system to still travel a distance of 8 m, would the ballistic's initial speed need to be larger or smaller? You should provide a conceptual argument; no math or calculations are necessary.

A ball of mass m1 = 1.00 kg swings downward with an initial speed of v0 = 7.40 m/s at a height h = 32.0 cm and strikes a ball of mass m2 = 3.70 kg that is at rest as shown in the figure. (a) Calculate the speed of the m1 just before the impact. 4.0m/s (b) Assuming the collision is perfectly inelastic, determine the height the balls reach after the collision. 4.0cm (c) Calculate the magnitude of the energy lost during the collision. 4.00 J
