An object is made of glass and has the shape of a cube 0.12 m on a side, according to an observer at rest relative to it. However, an observer moving at high speed parallel to one of the object's edges and knowing that the object's mass is 2.4 kg determines its density to be 9100 kg/m3, which is much greater than the density of glass. What is the moving observer's speed (in units of c) relative to the cube? Number Units

A lumberjack (mass = 107 kg) is standing at rest on one end of a floating log (mass = 214 kg) that is also at rest. The lumberjack runs to the other end of the log, attaining a velocity of +3.45 m/s relative to the shore, and then hops onto an identical floating log that is initially at rest. Neglect any friction and resistance between the logs and the water. (a) What is the velocity of the first log (again relative to the shore) just before the lumberjack jumps off? (b) Determine the velocity of the second log (again relative to the shore) if the lumberjack comes to rest relative to the second log. (a) Number Units (b) Number Units

A disk of mass m1 = 70.0 g and radius r1 = 3.50 cm slides on a frictionless sheet of ice with velocity v→, where v = 14.00 m/s, as shown in a top-down view in figure (a) below. The edge of this disk just grazes the edge of a second disk in a glancing blow. The second disk has a mass m2 = 140 g, a radius r2 = 5.00 cm, and is initially at rest. As the disks make contact, they stick together due to highly adhesive glue on the edge of each, and then rotate after the collision as shown in figure (b). (i) (a) What is the magnitude of the angular momentum (in kg⋅m2 /s ) of the two-disk system relative to its center of mass? kg⋅m2/s (b) What is the angular speed (in rad/s) about the center of mass? rad/s

A spaceship (with mass m and moving at speed v relative to an observer) separates into two pieces due to internal forces, one of them 3.8 times as massive as the other. After the separation the less massive piece is at rest as seen by the observer (in the observer's frame of reference). How does the kinetic energy of the system change as a result of the separation, as seen in the observer's frame of reference? Express your answer as a ratio of the change in kinetic energy to the initial kinetic energy: ΔKKi, where Ki is the initial kinetic energy: ΔKi Ki =
