Particle 1 with mass m1 and a velocity of v1 hits Particle 2 thathas a mass m2 and is at rest. The collisions are inelastic andstick together. Find the final velocity of the new particleif:

m1 = 10kg m2 = 5kg v1 = 20m/s

m1 = 1kg m2 = 50kg v1 = 10m/s

m1 = 100kg m2 = 1kg v1 = 30m/s

Consider the following system ashaving a frictionless surface. Mass m1 = 5 kg is released frompoint A and makes a head on 'elastic' collision with mass m2 = 10kg (initially at rest) at point B. After the collision, m2 has avelocity of 6.6 m/s toward the right.

a) Use conservation laws to determine the velocity of m1 after thecollision

b) If the velocity of m1 is positive (to the right), determine howfar both m1 and m2 will travel after 3 seconds. If the velocity ofm1 is negative (to the left), calculate the maximum height that m1rises back up the slope to after the collision.

c) Assume a coefficient of kinetic friction which equals 0.21exists between points B and C. Find the distance the m2 travelsbefore coming to rest.

Two gliders are set in motion on a horizontal air track. A massless spring of force constant k is attached to the back end of the second glider. As shown in the figure, the first glider, of mass m1, moves to the right with speed v1, and the second glider, of mass m2, moves more slowly to the right with speed v2. When glider 1 touches the spring, superglue instantly and permanently makes it stick to its end of the spring. In terms of v1, v2, m1, m2, find the speed v of the system of the spring and both gliders when the spring is at maximum compression and (b) the maximum compression distant x_max of the spring. The motion after the gliders become attached consists of the combination of (1) the constant-velocity motion of the center of mass of the two-glider system found in part (a) and (2) simple harmonic motion of the gliders relative to the center of mass

The vector sum of the individual momenta of all objects constituting the system. In this problem, you will analyze a system composed of two blocks, 1 and 2, of respective masses m1 and m2. To simplify the analysis, we will make several assumptions: The blocks can move in only one dimension, namely, along the x-axis. The masses of the blocks remain constant. The system is closed. At time t, the x components of the velocity and the acceleration of block 1 are denoted by v1(t) and a1(t). Similarly, the x components of the velocity and acceleration of block 2 are denoted by v2(t) and a2(t). In this problem, you will show that the total momentum of the system is not changed by the presence of internal forces.

Part A Find p(t), the x component of the total momentum of the system at time t. Express your answer in terms of m1, m2, v1(t), and v2(t). p(t) =

Part B Find the time derivative dp(t)/dt of the x component of the system's total momentum. Express your answer in terms of a1(t), a2(t), m1, and m2. dp(t)/dt =
