C) A 0.315 kg bird flying along at 6.5 m/s sees a 0.019 kg insect heading straight toward it with a speed of 23 m/s (as measured by an observer on the ground, not by the bird). The bird opens its mouth wide and enjoys a nice lunch. What is the bird's speed immediately after swallowing the insect? Answer in m/s
D) A 2.6 kg block slides along a frictionless surface at 1 m/s. A second block, sliding at a faster 5.9 m/s, collides with the first from behind and sticks to it. The final velocity of the combined blocks is 2.9 m/s. What was the mass of the second block? Answer in kg
