A air-track glider collides with a spring at one end of the track. FIGURE EX11.12 shows the glider’s velocity and the force exerted on the glider by the spring. How long is the glider in contact with the spring?

A weather rocket accelerates upward at. It explodes 2.0 s after liftoff and breaks into two fragments, one twice as massive as the other. Photos reveal that the lighter fragment traveled straight up and reached a maximum height of 530 m. What were the speed and direction of the heavier fragment just after the explosion?
Three identical train cars, coupled together, are rolling east at speed . A fourth car traveling east at catches up with the three and couples to make a four-car train. A moment later, the train cars hit a fifth car that was at rest on the tracks, and it couples to make a five-car train. What is the speed of the five-car train?
A archer, standing on frictionless ice, shoots a arrow at a speed of . What is the recoil speed of the archer?
A tennis player swings her 1000 g racket with a speed of 10 m/s. She hits a 60 g tennis ball that was approaching her at a speed of 20 m/s. The ball rebounds at 40 m/s.
a. How fast is her racket moving immediately after the impact? You can ignore the interaction of the racket with her hand for the brief duration of the collision.
b. If the tennis ball and racket are in contact for 10 ms, what is the average force that the racket exerts on the ball? How does this compare to the gravitational force on the ball?
