Block 1 of mass 2.0 kg is sliding to the right with velocity 8.5 and collides with blocks 2 mass 1.5 kg moving with velocity -2. The collision is perfectly elastic. What is the velocity of block 1 after the collision? Positive velocity indicates motion to the right while negative velocity indicates motion to the left.

angular collision-1 a block with a mass m=3·kg is sliding without friction at velocity v=8·m/s. It undergoes a perfectly elastic collision with the bottom tip of a beam of length L=4·m and mass M=3·kg. The beam is pivoted about a frictionless axle through its top end, and is initially hanging straight down at rest. Taking its initial velocity to be in the positive direction, what is the velocity of the block after the collision? m/s

Block #1 (4 kg) moves & collides with Block #2 (1 kg) with u2 = 9 m/s /to the left. After the collision, Block #1 has v1 = 2.7 m/s /to the left and Block #2 has v2 = 7.8 m/s /to the right. By calculation, show whether or not the collision is perfectly elastic. NOTE: Use ONLY the two linear equations – no kinetic energy is allowed. m1*u1 + m2*u2 = m1*v1 + m2*v2            u1 + v1 = u2...

Blocks A (mass 3.5 kg) and B (mass 5.5 kg) move on a frictionless, horizontal surface. Initially, block B is at rest and block A is moving toward it at 2.0 m/s. The blocks are equipped with ideal spring bumpers (as in Example 8.10, Section 8.4). The collision is head-on, so all motion before and after the collision is along a straight line. (a) Find the maximum energy stored in the spring bumpers, in Joules. (b) Find the velocity of...
