An 18.0 g dart tip is shot horizontally from a toy gun. The tip collides with a 360 g polyester sphere suspended by a 0.750 m light string and gets stuck to it. The breaking strength of the string is 5.00 N. Find the tip's maximum speed, just before the collision, that will not provoke a string crack.
Calculate the vertical and horizontal components of the pendulum’s maximum displacement when a 29-g steel ball launched at 211 m/s embeds itself in a 3.5-kg pendulum hanging from a 2.9-m-long wire, causing the pendulum to swing upward in an arc.
Calculate the speed of the second ball relative to the first during an collision pendulum experiment, where the first projectile (ball) elevates the pendulum to a maximum height of 3.0 cm and another projectile (ball) of the same mass triples the height to 9.0 cm.
