A dancer (m = 65 kg) isn’t paying attention while practicing his routine on stage. During one difficult move, the dancer accelerates from rest to 3 m/s over the course of 2 seconds. We will ignore any friction throughout this problem.
How much energy was gained or lost during the collision?

A dancer (m = 65 kg) isn’t paying attention while practicing his routine on stage. During one difficult move, the dancer accelerates from rest to 3 m/s over the course of 2 seconds. We will ignore any friction throughout this problem. What was the impulse and work required by the dancer to accelerate the way he did?
A 2 x 10^-3 kg bullet (m) is shot into a 5 kg block (M) of wood which is fixed to a friction less horizontal surface. The bullet hits the block at v = 500m/s 1) Calculate the magnitude of the momentum of the bullet as it hits the block. 2) The bullet embeds itself in the block. How much work is done by the resistive force due to the block in bringing the bullet to rest? 3) The average...
