An explosion aboard a stationary spacecraft breaks it into 3 well-defined and identifiable pieces. From a space station you capture a video of the explosion. A 2500-kg piece flies off at 200 m/s in the –x-direction (as seen on the video monitor), a 1500-kg piece moves away at 220 m/s at an angle of 34° above the +x axis. The third piece you know to be 1800 kg but its path cannot be seen on the video. You want to know which way it’s headed in case it moves toward another space station. What is the velocity of this third fragment? Assume all the pieces lie in the same (xy) plane.

Snell's Law and the Law of Reflection explain how light is redirected when it encounters a surface between two media. In the extreme, light may only reflect at a boundary, and go back into the medium it was in. More often, some of it reflects and some goes through. If the boundary is plane and flat, then these laws are easy to interpret. When the boundary is curved, they describe happens at every point on the surface.
One of the classic types of glass is called "crown" glass, which has an index of refraction for visible light of 1.52 and is usually free of significant impurities. It was one of the first glasses discovered, and windows are made from it. Another glass is called "flint" glass, and it has lead oxide added, which makes it heavier, more "dispersive", and increases its index of refraction to 1.62.
1. A ray of light enters a flat surface of crown glass at a 25 degree angle to the surface. At what angles do the reflected and refracted rays leave the surface?
2. As in the first part, but for flint glass, what are the angles?
3. For the flint glass, the refracted ray goes through the glass to the other side. If the glass is a parallel slab, what happens when the ray reaches the opposite side from the inside? At what angle to the surface does it exit the glass back into air?
4. What is the smallest angle to the surface that light can have and still be transmitted from the inside to the outside in the case of flint glass? What angle is the light going at as it leaves in that case?
Hint: The laws of reflection and refraction are usually stated in terms of the angles to the perpendicular or "normal" to the surface. These questions are rephrased in terms of the angles to the surface so take care in interpreting the laws and your answers.

A car with a mass of 1160 kg is traveling in a mountainous area with a constant speed of 73.6 km/h. The road is horizontal and flat at point A, horizontal and curved at points B and C. The radii of curvatures at B and C are: rB = 150 m and rC = 105 m. Calculate the normal force exerted by the road on the car at point Now calculate the normal force exerted by the road on the car at point B. And finally calculate the normal force exerted by the road on the car at point C.

A baseball crosses home plate with a velocity of 89.8 miles per
hour, at an angle of 30.0 degrees below horizontal, towards the
batter. Shortly after, it has been hit by a baseball bat, and now
has velocity 99.6 miles per hour at a "launch angle" of 25.0
degrees above horizontal, away from the batter. The ball has mass
0.145 kg, keeping with the Major League Baseball rulebook. Define
"from the batter, towards the pitcher" as positive x, and "up" as
positive y. (Note: we are assuming that the ball is hit in the
direction of the pitcher, versus to the left or right; otherwise
this becomes a 3-dimensional problem.)
A. What is the change in the x-component of the ball's linear
momentum? Hint: in order to get the correct value, you must (1)
split the initial and final velocities into x and y components, (2)
convert miles per hour to meters per second, and (3) be careful
about which velocities are negative (look at the definitions in the
table above).
kg*m/s
B. What is the change in the y-component of the ball's linear
momentum?
kg*m/s
C. What is the magnitude of the total change in the ball's linear
momentum?
kg*m/s
