A 10 g rubber ball and a 10 g clay ball are thrown
at a wall with equal speeds. The rubber ball
bounces, the clay ball sticks. Which ball exerts a
larger impulse on the wall?
1. The clay ball exerts a larger impulse because
it sticks.
2. The rubber ball exerts a larger impulse
because it bounces.
3. They exert equal impulses because they have
equal momenta.
4. Neither exerts an impulse on the wall because
the wall doesn’t move.

Objects A and C are made of different materials, with
different “springiness,” but they have the same mass and
are initially at rest. When ball B collides with object A, the
ball ends up at rest. When ball B is thrown with the same
speed and collides with object C, the ball rebounds to the
left. Compare the velocities of A and C after the collisions.
Is vA greater than, equal to, or less than vC?
1. vA > vC
2. vA = vC
3. vA < vC

An explosion in a rigid pipe shoots out three
pieces. A 6 g piece comes out the right end. A 4 g
piece comes out the left end with twice the speed
of the 6 g piece. From which end does the third
piece emerge?
1. Left end
2. Right end

A dry ice (solid carbon dioxide) puck revolves in a circle on
the end of a lightweight rigid rod that turns on frictionless
bearings. A cushion of CO2 gas allows the puck to glide
across the surface without friction. As the puck sublimates
(changes from a solid to a gas), its speed
1. increases.
2. decreases.
3. stays the same.
