A)
use conservation of energy ,
initial kinetic energy = final kinetic energy + final potential
energy
0.5*m*vi^2 = m*g*h + 0.5*m*vbefore^2
0.5*vi^2 = g*h + 0.5*vbefore^2
0.5*8^2 = 9.8*2 + 0.5*vbefore^2
vbefore = 4.98 m/s
B)
use conservation of momentum,
mbefore*vbefore = m after * vafter
60*4.98 = (60+15)*vafter
vafter = 3.98 m/s

A girl of mass m1=60.0 kilograms springs from a trampoline with an initial upward velocity of vi=8.00 meters per second. At height h=2.00 meters above the trampoline, the girl grabs a box of mass m2=15.0 kilograms. (Figure 1) For this problem, use g=9.80 meters per second per second for the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity. A girl of mass m1=60.0 kilograms springs from a trampoline with an initial upward velocity of vi=8.00meters per second. At height h=2.00 meters...
A block of mass m_1 = 1.80 kg moving at v_1 = 2.00 m/s undergoes a completely inelastic collision with a stationary block of mass m_2 = 0.300 kg. The blocks then move, stuck together, at speed v_2. After a short time, the two-block system collides inelastically with a third block, of mass m_3 = 2.20 kg, which is initially at rest. The three blocks then move, stuck together, with speed v_3. (Figure 1) Assume that the blocks slide without...
A small cannonball with mass 9 kilograms is shot vertically upward with an initial velocity of 190 meters per second. If the air resistance is assumed to be directly proportional to the speed of the cannonball, a differential equation modeling the projectile velocity is du т = mg – kv dt Assume that k = 0.0025, and use g = - 10 meters/second2. Solve the differential equation for the velocity v(t). Don't forget to include the initial condition. v(t) =...
Consider the following two-caraccident: Two cars of equal mass collide at an intersection. Driver E was traveling eastward, anddriver N, northward. After the collision, the two cars remainjoined together and slide, with locked wheels, before coming torest. Police on the scene measure the length of the skid marks to be 9 meters. The coefficient offriction between the locked wheels and the road is equal to 0.9. Each driver claims that hisspeed was less than 14 meters per second (50 mph)....
Use the work-energy theorem to calculate the minimum speed v that you must give the box at the bottom of the incline so that it will reach the skier. Constants Part A You are a member of an alpine rescue team and must get a box of supplies, with mass 2.00 kg, up an incline of constant slope angle 30.0 ° so that it reaches a stranded skier who is a vertical distance 2.50 m above the bottom of the...
