WORKED EXAMPLES

EASY

A 2.0 kg object moving with a velocity of 8.0 m s collides with a 4.0 kg object moving with a velocity of 5.0 m s¹ along the same straight line. If the bodies join together on impact, calculate their common velocity if they are initially moving in the same direction.
Answer

MEDIUM

A marksman holds a rifle of mass M = 3.00 kg loosely in his hands, so as to let it recoil freely when fired. He fires a bullet of mass m = 5.00 g horizontally with a velocity of vB = 300 m s-1. What is the recoil velocity vR of the rifle?
Answer

HARD

An object A of mass 2.0 kg moves to the right along a frictionless surface at a speed of 40 m s-1. It collides head-on with a 10 kg object B which is moving to the left at 4.0 m s-1. After the collision A recoils and moves to the left at 30 m s-1. Find final velocity of B.
