Two ice skaters, Daniel (mass 65.0 kg) and Rebecca (mass 45.0 kg), are practicing. Daniel stops to tie his shoelace and, while at rest, is struck by Rebecca, whois moving at 13.0 m/s before she collides with him. After the collision, Rebecca has a velocity of magnitude 8.00m/s at an angle of 53.1^\circ from her initial direction. Both skaters move on the frictionless, horizontal surface of the rink.
A. What is the magnitude of Daniel's velocity after the collision?
B. What is the direction of Daniel's velocity after the collision?

Three ice skaters meet at the center of a rink and each stands at rest facing the center, within arm's reach of the other two. On a signal, each skater pushes himself away from the other two across the frictionless ice. After the push, skater A with mass mA = 80.0 kg moves in the negative y-direction at 3.50 m/s and skater B with mass mB = 75.0 kg moves in the negative x-direction at 4.00 m/s. Find the x- and y-components of the 90.0-kg skater C's velocity after the push.

A 0.30 kg puck, initially at rest on a frictionless horizontal surface, is struck by a 0.20 kg puck that is initially moving along the x-axis with a velocity of 2.8 m/s. After the collision, the 0.20 kg puck has a speed of 1.1 m/s at an angle of to the positive x-axis

(a) Determine the velocity of the 0.30 kg puck after the collision.

(b) Find the fraction of kinetic energy lost in the collision.

 

a block of mass 1.50 kg starts at rest at the top of a frictionless30degree incline. it slides 2.55 meters along the incline beforereaching a frictionless horizontal surface, where it makes aglancing collision with a 2.00 kg block which is initially atrest.

After the collision, the second block moves at 2m/s at an angle of37 degree to right of the initial path of the incoming first block(see diagram below)

1. Find the velocity of the first block at the bottom of theincline. There are at least three different ways to do this. Findand use all three.
2. Find the velocity (magnitude and direction) of the first blockafter the collision with the second block.
3. Is kinetic energy conserved in the collision? Showmathematically.
4. Because there is no friction, you should be able to explain whyit doesn’t matter if the velocities after collision are measure 1,2, or even 3 seconds (or more) after the collision. Do so
5. How would the answers to #2, 3, and 4 be changed if there werefriction? No math needed; answer qualitatively.
