A 0.350 kg lump of clay is dropped from a height of 1.45 m onto the floor. It sticks to the floor and does not bounce. What is the magnitude of the impulse J imparted to the clay max by the floor during the impact? Assume that the acceleration due to gravity is g = 9.81 m/s². J = kg · m/s The force exerted by the floor on the clay is plotted as a function of time in the figure. What must have been the maximum force Fmax exerted by the floor on the clay? 5.5 ms Time (ms) Fmax = N Force (N)

A tennis ball of mass 57.0 g is held just above a basketball of mass 590 g. With their centers vertically aligned, both balls are released from rest at the same time, falling through a distance of 1.20 m, as shown in Figure P6.45. (a) Find the magnitude of the basketballs velocity the instant before the basketball reaches the ground. (b) Assume that an elastic collision with the ground instantaneously reverses the velocity of the basketball so that it collides with the tennis ball just above it. To what height does the tennis ball rebound? Figure P6.45
Check Your Understanding The changes of momentum for Philae and for Comet 67/P were equal (in magnitude). Were the impulses experienced by Philae and the comet equal? How about the forces? How about the changes of kinetic energies?
Check Your Understanding Suppose the initial velocities were not at right angles to each other. How would this change both the physical result and the mathematical analysis of the collision?
Two blocks of masses m1 = 2.00 kg and m2 = 4.00 kg are released from rest at a height of h = 5.00 m on a friction less track as shown in Figure P9.77. When they meet on the level portion of the track, they undergo a head-on, elastic collision. Determine the maximum heights to which m, and rise on the curved portion of the track after the collision. \
Check Your Understanding Would the ball’s change of momentum have been larger, smaller, or the same, if it had collided with the floor and stopped (without bouncing)?

Two automobiles of equal mass approach an intersection. One vehicle is traveling with velocity 13.0 m/s toward the east, and the other is traveling north with velocity v2i. Neither driver sees the other. The vehicles collide in the intersection and stick together, leaving parallel skid marks at an angle of 55.0 north of east The speed limit for both roads is 35 mi/h, and the driver of the northward-moving vehicle claims he was within the limit when the collision occurred. Is he telling the truth?
