A knife thrower throws a knife toward a 300 g target that is sliding in her direction at a speed of 2.20 m/s on a horizontal frictionless surface. She throws a 22.5 g knife at the target with a speed of 36.0 m/s. The target is stopped by the impact and the knife passes through the target. Determine the speed of the knife (in m/s) after passing through the target.
Solution :-
Energy cannot be conserved,
so working with momentum...
+ direction away from her..
-300*2.20+22.5*36=300*0+22.5V
solve for V
V = 6.67 m/she

An archer shoots an arrow toward a 300-g target that is sliding in her direction at a speed of 2.45 m/s on a smooth, slippery surface. The 22.5-g arrow is shot with a speed of 35.5 m/s and passes through the target, which is stopped by the impact. What is the speed of the arrow after passing through the target? A railroad car of mass 2.35 times 10^4 kg moving at 2.50 m/s collides and couples with two coupled railroad...
An object with mass 4.0 kg is sliding on a horizontal, frictionless surface at speed 11.5 m/s. This object is moving in the positive x-direction. A second object, having mass 5.55 kg, is sliding on the same surface at speed 15.5 m/s. The second object is moving in a direction 75 degrees counterclockwise from the positive x-direction. If the objects stick after impact how fast would it move?
PROBLEM THREE (25 1 A 3.0 kg block sliding on a horizontal frictionless surface is attached to one end of a horizontal spring (k 250 N/m) which has the other end fixed. If the block has a speed of 5.0 m/s as it passes through equilibrium, what is its speed when it is 15 cm from the equilibrium postion?
A block of mass 2.0 kg sliding on a horizontal frictionless surface is attached to one end of a horizontal spring (k = 800 N/m) which has its other end fixed. If the speed of the block as it passes through the equilibrium position is 4.0 m/s, what is its speed when it is a distance of 10 cm from the equilibrium position? a) 3.2 m/s b) 3.5 m/s c) 2.9 m/s d) 2.4 m/s
A 300-g object is attached to a spring that has a force constant of 80 N/m. The object is pulled 8 cm to the right of equilibrium and released from rest to slide on a horizontal frictionless table. (a) Calculate the maximum speed of the object. An object (m0.300 kg) attached to a spring (k 80 N/m) is pulled A 0.08 m to the right of equilibrium and released from rest. It begins to oscillate on a horizontal, frictionless table....
A student throws a water balloon with speed vo from a height h = 1.52 m at an angle θ=39° above the horizontal toward a target on the ground. The target is located a horizontal distance d = 7.5 m from the student's feet. Assume that the balloon moves without air resistance. Use a Cartesian coordinate system with the origin at the balloon's initial position. Part (a) what is the position vector, Rtarget that originates from the balloon's original position and...

A 5.00-g bullet moving with an initial speed of 450 m/s passes through a 1.00-kg block, as shown in the figure. The block is initially at rest on a frictionless, horizontal surface and is connected to a spring that has a spring-force constant of 900 N/m. The block moves a distance d = 3.34 cm to the right after the collision. Note that the block only starts moving after the bullet has completely passed through the block. IWW d Round...
0.150 kg stone rests on a frictionless, horizontal surface.
