$A$ particle of mass $m$ moving horizontally with velocity $v_0$ strikes a smooth wedge of mass $M$,as shown in the figure. After the collision,the particle starts moving up the inclined face of the wedge and rises to a height $h$. The final velocity of the wedge $v_2$ is

  • A
    $\frac{mv_0}{M}$
  • B
    $\frac{mv_0}{M+m}$
  • C
    $v_0$
  • D
    insufficient data

$A$ ball of mass $1 \ kg$ moving with a velocity of $0.4 \ m/s$ collides with another ball of the same mass at rest. After the collision,the first ball moves with a velocity of $0.3 \ m/s$ in a direction perpendicular to the initial direction. Find the magnitude of the momentum $\vec{P}$ of the second ball in $kg \cdot m/s$.

$A$ ball of mass $m = 60 \text{ g}$ is shot with speed $v_0 = 22 \text{ m/s}$ into the barrel of a spring gun of mass $M = 240 \text{ g}$ initially at rest on a frictionless surface.
