Two blocks of masses 6 kg and 5.5 kg are
placed on a horizontal, frictionless surface. a
light spring is attached to one of them, and
the blocks are pushed together with the spring
between them. a cord holding them together
is burned, after which the block of mass 5.5 kg
moves to the right with a speed of 6.8 m/s.
what is the velocity of the other mass in
m/s?
answer in units of m/s

An object with initial temperature 130 ∘ f is submerged in large tank of water whose temperature is 50 ∘ f . find a formula for f ( t ) , the temperature of the object after t minutes, if the cooling constant is k = − 0.2 . remember newton's law of cooling (the rate of change of temperature with respect to time is equal to k times the difference between the temperature of the object and the surrounding temperature) ! : )

A15,000 kg rocket traveling at +230 m/s turns on its engines. over a 6.0 s period it burns 1,000 kg of fuel. an observer on the ground measures the velocity of the expelled gases to be −1,200 m/s.

Momentum lab this lab uses a phet simulation. navigate to the phet momentum simulation. if you don’t see the image below when you click on the link, then you need to either enable adobe flash (click on the puzzle piece on your screen) or you need to install adobe flash (this is a free program). change the vectors to be momentum vectors only. they are yellow. make the mass of both balls the same. hit play and notice what happens to the momentum vectors before and after the collision. you might want to play the sim multiple times. click on restart or return balls to start over. to see numbers, check the show values box (inside the green box). red’s momentum vector before the collision is green’s momentum vector after the collision. question 1 options: shorter than longer than equal to question 2 (1 point) saved since green bounces off red, this must be an collision. question 2 options: explosion inelastic elastic question 3 (1 point) red transfers of its momentum to green during the collision. question 3 options: little all most none question 4 (4 points) why does red transfer all its momentum to green? back up your answer with information from the simulation. write at least 2 sentences.
