Β 5 x (cm) 36 Strategy The total momentum of the system is equal to the total mass of the system times the velocity of the center of mass Let east be in the positive direction Solution Find the total momentum p r = Mv r = m Av r A + mbv r B since p r = p r A + p r B 10 m/s Thus, r r r ma va + mbvb v = 50 kg A ma + mb Find the velocity of the center of mass (50 kg)(10 m s) + (15 kg)( 10 m s) v = = 5 m s, so v r = 5 m s west 50 kg + 15 kg 15 kg B 10 m/s N 43 Strategy Use conservation of momentum The collision is perfectly inelastic, so v 1f = v f = v f Also, the block is initially at rest, so v i = 0 Solution Find the speed of the block of wood and the bullet just after the collision m1v 1f + mvf = ( m1 + m ) vf = m1v 1i + mvi = m1v 1i + m (0), so m1 0050 kg vf = v1i = (1000 m s) = 50 m s m1 + m 0050 kg + 095 kg 48 My Strategy Use the equations for one-dimensional elastic collisions derived in class July 3 Strategy Use conservation of linear momentum Since the collision is perfectly elastic, kinetic energy is conserved Solution The 100-g ball is (1) and the 300-g ball is () Note that m = 3 m1 m m1v1i + mvi = m1v1i + m (0) = m1v1i = m1v1f + mvf, so v1i = v1f + vf = v1f + 3 vf m1 1 m1v 1i + 1 m (0) = 1 m1v 1i = 1 m 1 1 1 1v1f + mvf = m1v 1f + (3 m1 ) vf, so v1i = v1f + 3 vf Substitute for v 1i
( ) v + 3v = v + 6v v + 9v = v + 3 v, so 6v v = 6 v, or v = v 1f f 1f 1f f f 1f f 1f f f 1f f Find the final velocities of each ball 1 1 v1i = v1f + 3vf = vf + 3vf = vf, so vf = v1i = (500 m s) = 50 m s = = So, the 300-g ball moves at 50 m s in the + x -direction Since v1f vf, v1f 50 m s and the 100-g ball moves at 50 m s in the x-direction 57 Strategy Use conservation of momentum Let each of the first two pieces be 45 from the positive x-axis (one CW, one CCW) Solution Find the speed of the third piece Find v 3 x p1x + px + p3x = mv1x + mvx + mv3x = 0, so v3x = v1 x vx = v cos 45 v cos( 45 ) = v v = v Similarly, v3 y = v1 y v y = v sin 45 v sin( 45 ) = v v + = 0, so v3 = v3x = v = ( ) = 170 m s 91 Strategy Use conservation of momentum and energy The collision is elastic, so kinetic energy is conserved Solution Find the speed of bob B immediately after the collision Momentum conservation: mvaf + mvbf = mvai + mvbi = mvai + 0, so vbf = vai vaf Perfectly elastic collision ( Ki = Kf ): 1 mvaf + 1 mvbf = 1 mv 1 1 Ai + mvbi = mvai + 0, so vaf + vbf = vai Energy conservation: 1 mvai mgh, so vai gh = = Find v Af in terms of v Ai v Ai = vaf + vbf = vaf + ( vai vaf ) = vaf + vai vaivaf + vaf, so vaf ( vaf vai ) = 0 Thus, v Af = 0 or v Ai The only way v Af could equal v Ai is if bob B didn t exist, so v Af = 0 Calculate v Bf v Bf = vai vaf = gh 0 = (980 m s )(51 m) = 10 m s
