In a carrom game, a striker weighs three times the massof the other pieces, the carrom men and the queen,which each have a mass M. You shoot the striker witha speed V at the queen (which is at the center of theboard) directly parallel to the rail that runs along the xaxis, hoping to pocket the queen in the bottom rightcorner. Assume the carrom board has edges that layalong the x- and y-axes and the board itself is inquadrant I and that the collision is elastic.If you make the shot, what is the relative velocity of thequeen with respect to the striker after the collision?[Answer: -V (Y-direction)]

A 3.5 kg rifle fires an 11 g bullet with a velocity of 575 m/s. (a) What is the recoil velocity of the rifle? (b) If the shooter holds the rifle firmly against his shoulder, what will be the recoil velocity? Assume the mass of the shooter is 45.0 kg. Perform the GRESA in solving.
the two identetical freight cars roll without friction towards each ohter, in oppoite directions, on a level track,. One car roll at 3.3 m/s and the other rolls at 2.2 m/s/. After the cars collied, they couple and roll together with a speed of ___ m/s
The drawing shows Robin Hood(mass = 77.0 kg) about to escape froma dangerous situation. With one hand,he is gripping the rope that holds up achandelier (mass = 195 kg). When hecuts the rope where it is tied to thefloor, the chandelier will fall, and hewill b. pulled up toward a balconyabove. Ignore the friction between therope and the beams over which itslides, and find (a) the accelerationwith which Robin is pulled upward and (b) thetension in the rope while Robin escapes.
A large cannon of mass 400. kg can fire a 10.0 kg cannonball at a velocity of 50.0 m/s. If the cannon is put on a hard, level surface with negligible friction and the fired at a 45.0° angle, what would be the recoil velocity of the cannon?
A bullet (m = 0.0250 kg) is fired with a speed of 95.00 m/s and hits a block (M = 2.10 kg) supported by two light strings as shown, stopping quickly. Find the height to which the block rises. Find the angle (in degrees) through which the block rises, if the strings are 0.270 m in length.
A hiker inspects a tree frog sitting on a small stick in his hand.Suddenly startled, the hiker drops the stick from rest at aheight of 1.85 m above the ground and, at the same instant,the frog leaps vertically upward, pushing the stick down sothat it hits the ground 0.450 s later. Find the height of the frogat the instant the stick hits the ground if the frog and the stickhave masses of 7.25 g and 4.50 g, respectively. (Hint: Find thecenter-of-mass height at t = 0.450 s for the frog–stick systemand then use the definition of center of mass to solve for thefrog’s height.)
There are no numerical values assigned to the variables in this problem. A block of mass m1 is projected with a velocity vi at the top of the wedge. When the block reaches the horizontal surface its velocity vf to the right while the wedge moves with a velocity v2 of to the left. (a). What is the velocity of the once it reaches the horizontal surface? Your answer must be in terms of relevant variables. (b). What is the height h the wedge in terms of the relevant variables?
A curved incline is used to give a box a certain velocity as it slides down. The box has a mass of m1=4.92 kg. Friction is negligable. The box starts from rest at h= 5.00 m above the flat surface at the bottom of the incline. After moving down, it collides with a second box m2=10.5kg, also initially at rest. Teh collision is elastic. Find the maximum height to which m1 rises after the collision
A small block of mass m, = 0.855 kg is released from rest at the top of a curved wedge of mass m, = 8.80 kg, which sits on a frictionless horizontal surface as in figure (a).
