Mass M moves to the right with speed =v along a frictionless horizontal surface and crashes into an equal mass M initially at rest. Upon colliding, the two masses stick together and move with speed V to the right. Notice that v and V denote different speeds.  After the collision the magnitude of the momentum of the system is: (pick all correct answers) 2 M V M V 0 2 M v M v

A physics student playing with an air hockey table (a frictionless surface) finds that if she gives the puck a velocity of 3.78 m/s along the length ( 1.79 m ) of the table (the x-direction) at one end, by the time it has reached the other end the puck has drifted a distance 2.55 cm to the right (the y-direction). The puck still has a x-component of its velocity of 3.78 m/s when it reaches the other end of...

A thin rod (mass 8.28 kg, length 8.04 m) is sitting on a horizontal, frictionless table. There is a 0.626 kg frog sitting on the very end of the rod; you can treat the frog as a point particle. Suddenly the frog jumps off at speed 4.75 m/s, moving horizontally and perpendicular to the rod. Find ω, the angular speed of the rod after the frog jumps off, in rad/s.
