Chapter 9: Problem 73
Find an expression for the impulse imparted by a force \(F(t)=F_{0} \sin (a t)\) during the time \(t=0\) to \(t=\pi / a .\) Here \(a\) is a constant with units of \(\mathrm{s}^{-1}\).

Get started for freeIs it possible to have an inelastic collision in which all the kinetic energy of the colliding objects is lost? If so, give an example. If not, why not?
A head-on, elastic collision between two particles with equal initial speed \(v\) leaves the more massive particle \(\left(m_{1}\right)\) at rest. Find (a) the ratio of the particle masses and (b) the final speed of the less massive particle.
An 11,000 -kg freight car rests against a spring bumper at the end of a railroad track. The spring has constant \(k=0.32 \mathrm{MN} / \mathrm{m}\). The car is hit by a second car of \(9400-\mathrm{kg}\) mass moving at \(8.5 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}\), and the two couple together. Find (a) the maximum compression of the spring and (b) the speed of the two cars when they rebound together from the spring.
You're working in quality control for a model rocket manufacturer, testing a class-D rocket whose specifications call for an impulse between 10 and \(20 \mathrm{N}\).s. The rocket's burn time is \(\Delta t=2.8 \mathrm{s},\) and its thrust during that time is \(F(t)=a t(t-\Delta t)\) where \(a=-4.6 \mathrm{N} / \mathrm{s}^{2} .\) Does the rocket meet its specs?
A popcorn kernel at rest in a hot pan bursts into two pieces, with masses \(91 \mathrm{mg}\) and \(64 \mathrm{mg} .\) The more massive piece moves horizontally at \(47 \mathrm{cm} / \mathrm{s}\). Describe the motion of the second piece.
