Find the final speed of puck

Reference no: EM13655341

The drawing shows a collision between two pucks on an air-hockey table. Puck A has a mass of 0.036 kg and is moving along the x axis with a velocity of +5.5 m/s. It makes a collision with puck B, which has a mass of 0.056 kg and is initially at rest. The collision is not head-on. After the collision, the two pucks fly apart with the angles shown in the drawing. (a) Find the final speed of puck A. m/s (b) Find the final speed of puck B. m/s

Model the floor ascompletely solid and motionless : A 60.0 kg person bends his knees andthen jumps straight up. After his feet leave the floor, his motionis unaffected by air resistance and his center of mass rises by amaximum of 14.9 cm. Model the floor ascompletely solid and motionless.

Large plate is dropped and breaks into three pieces : By accident, a large plate is dropped and breaks into three pieces. The pieces fly apart parallel to the floor, with v1 = 2.80 m/s and v2 = 1.85 m/s. As the plate falls, its momentum has only a vertical component, and no component parallel to the flo..
