1) A ship and Morty are at rest. The ship fires a snake at Morty with velocity vsi=+100m/s.

Please show all work

a) What is the ship's velocity after it fires the snake?

b) What is Morty's velocity after he collides elastically with the snake?

c) After hitting Morty, can the snake ever catch up with the ship? Explain.

snake mass= 2.00kg

morty mass= 60.0kg

ship mass= 300kg

Two astronauts floating at rest with respect to their ship in space decide to play catch with a 2-kg asteroid. Joe (whose mass is 100 kg) throws the asteroid at 20 m/s toward Jesse (whose mass is 68 kg). She catches it and throws it back at 18 m/s (with respect to the ship). What is Joe's speed right after his first throw? m/s What is Jesse's speed right after her first catch? m/s What is Jesse's speed right after...

A dockworker loading crates on a ship finds that a 34-kg crate, initially at rest on a horizontal surface, requires a 73-N horizontal force to set it in motion. However, after the crate is in motion, a horizontal force of 50 N is required to keep it moving with a constant speed. Find the coefficients of static and kinetic friction between crate and floor

The drive propeller of a ship starts from rest and accelerates at 2.99 x 10-3 rad/s2 for 2.86 x 103 s. For the next 1.90 x 103 s the propeller rotates at a constant angular speed. Then it decelerates at 2.61 x 10-3 rad/s2 until it slows (without reversing direction) to an angular speed of 2.31 rad/s. Find the total angular displacement of the propeller.

A rocket ship is launched from rest from a space station. Its destinations 1.0 x 10^11 m away. The ship is programmed to accelerate at 7.4 m/s^2 for 12 hours. After 12 hours, the ship will travel at constant velocity until it comes within 1.0 x 10^10 m of its destination. Then, it will fire its retrorockets to land safely.
