7. A billiard ball is shot west at 3.00 m/s. A second, identical billiard ball is shot east at 2.00 m/s. The balls has a glancing collision, not a head-on-collision, deflecting the second ball by 90° and sending it south at 1.50 m/s. What is the angle that the velocity of the first ball makes after the collision, with respect to the west direction?

Professional golfers can drive the ball over 200 m. While air resistance is significant, its effects are nearly canceled because lift is gained from backspin on the ball, and so a reasonable description of the ball’s trajectory is obtained if air resistance is neglected. Suppose a golfer hits a ball 200 m on level ground, giving it an initial velocity at an angle of 45o. The duration of the impact of the club and ball has been measured to be 1.00 ms. a) Calculate the velocity of the ball just after it is struck b) What is the 0.0450 kg ball's change in momentum?
A 5.0-kilogram grenade lying motionless on the ground explodes into three pieces. (It's not a very sophisticated grenade.) A 2.0-kilogram piece flies off at 18 meters per second and 110 degrees. A 1.7-kilogram piece flies off at 31 meters per second and 270 degrees. What is the velocity of the third piece? Include units in your answers.

A firecracker moves vertically upward and after reaching the highest point in its vertical trajectory, it starts falling down. After it falls down by 17.7 meters in air it cracks into two identical pieces. One of the pieces shoots off horizontally with 11.8 m/s speed. What would be the magnitude of the velocity of the other piece right after they split? Enter your answer in m/s. On your paper, show both your calculation for the magnitude and also the direction of the velocity vector of the second piece. Show your work in detail including your physics- based reasoning.
Sam fields a baseball hit to him in the left field. He then throws the ball to third to force out the base runner, Mike. Sam releases the ball 1.75 m above the ground with a vertical velocity of 8.5 m/s and a horizontal velocity of 26.5 m/s. At the instant Sam releases the ball, he is 43 m from the third baseman, Charlie, and Mike is 14 m from third base and running at 8.5 m/s toward third. Assume that air resistance does not affect the flight of the ball when answering the following questions. a. How high in the air does the ball go? b. How much time does it take for the ball to reach the third baseman? c. How high is the ball when it reaches the third baseman? d How long does it take Mike to reach third base if he maintains his 8.5 m/s pace?
Georgia, standing on the back of the pick-up truck, wants to throw her last piece of balut to her mortal enemy, Emma. before the truck started moving, the two women are separated by a distance of 2 m. For two seconds, the truck uniformly accelerated until it reached a velocity of 4 m/s which it then maintained. With hatred, Georgia throws the last piece of balut with a velocity of 12.5 m/s at an angle of 40° from horizontal, measured relative to the truck. If she makes the throw 2.8 seconds after the truck started moving, will she be able to hit Emma? Note that Emma is at rest due to exhaustion from their earlier fight and she cannot dodge the balut. Set your origin at point A. Neglect air resistance.
