    IMPULSE MOMENTUM

    Problem 1
    Joe, of mass 90kg, jumps straight up. To do so, he bends his knees and produces an
    upwards force that results in a constant upward net force of 100N. If Joe experiences this
    force for 0.9s before leaving the ground, what is Joe's velocity immediately after he leaves
    the ground?
    Solution:
    Problem 2
    In a billiards game, one player hits the cue ball towards another ball. The cue ball
    m
    has a mass of 0.1 kg and hits the other ball with a velocity of 2 . If the collision is
    s
    m
    completely elastic and the cue ball travels with a velocity of 0.8 after the collision, what is
    s
    the mass and velocity of the other ball?
    Solution:
    Problem 3
    m
    A 150 g baseball is thrown with a speed of 40 . If it takes 0.7 s for the baseball to
    s
    come to rest in the catcher's glove, what is the average force the catcher experiences due to
    the ball?

    Problem 4
    m
    A 5 kg rock flying through the air is traveling at a velocity of 12when it collides
    s
    into and sticks to a stationary bean bag, weighing20 kg. What is the velocity of the two
    objects?
    Solution:
    Problem 5
    Two sumo wrestlers are in a match. At the start of the match, they both lunge at
    each other. They hit and miraculously come to a stand still. One wrestler was 200 kg and
    m
    traveling at a velocity of 2.3 at the instance of collision. If the other wrestler was
    s
    m
    traveling at 2.9 , what is his mass?
    s
    Solution:

    Problem 6
    A 70 g bullet is fired at a 7 kg block of lead resting on a frictionless surface. The bullet
    m
    has an initial speed of 400 , while the block is initially at rest. After hitting the block, the
    s
    m
    bullet rebounds with a speed of 300 . How fast is the lead block moving after the bullet
    s
    rebounds off of it?

    Problem 8
    m
    One car with a mass of 400 kg is traveling east at 20 and collides with a car of mass
    s
    m
    800 kg traveling west at 15 . Assuming the collision is completely inellastic, what is
    s
    velocity of the first car after the collision?

    Problem 9
    Two astronauts in space are traveling directly towards each other. Astronaut A has a
    m
    mass of 70 kg and a velocity of 15 and Astronaut B has a mass of 60 kg and a velocity of
    s
    m
    5 . When the astronauts collide, they grab onto each other. What is the velocity of the two
    s
    astronauts after the collision as they continue to grab onto each other?
