A billiard ball (1kg) and a big piece of chewing gum (0.2kg) are moving at each other. The billiard ball has an initial velocity of 4 m/s to the right, and the chewing gum has a velocity of 20 m/s to the left. What is the final velocity of both the chewing gum and the billiard ball when they stick together after colliding?

3. Harry Potter is doing his usual thing of cruising around looking for the Golden Snitch when a rogue bludger drills him in the arm. We can assume that the bludger is initially moving at a speed of 15.0 m/s and hits Harry directly from the side. If Harry had been moving forward with a speed of 24.0 m/s and the bludger and Harry stick together after the collision, what is their final velocity (both magnitude and direction)? Assume that Harry has a mass of 48.0 kg (including his Nimbus 2000) and that the mass of a bludger is 25.0 kg. m B = 25.0 kg B = 15.0 m/s Bam! Harry+Bludger v = ?

Squids rely on jet propulsion when a rapid escape is necessary, providedthey have filled their mantle with water prior to escape. An empty 1.5kg squid initially drifting at 1.6m/s pulls in 0.10kg of water in its mantle, then ejects this water at a remarkable 45m/s. How fast is this squid moving right after this ejection?
