3. Two meatballs are speeding directly toward each other. One is a 4.0-kg meatball moving with a speed

of 6.0 m/s, and the other has a mass of 2.0 kg and a speed of 4 m/s. If they collide inelastically, what
will be the speed of the resulting 6.0 kg meatball immediately after the collision?

4. A ball of mass 2 Kg is moving with the velocity of 12 m/s collides with a stationary ball of mass 6 kg and comes to
rest. Calculate the velocity of ball of mass 6 Kg ball after collision. (Both balls are elastic).

6. A rifle is a long gun whose barrel has been grooved or "rifled" on the inside with spiral channels. (For comparison, a
long gun with a smooth bore is called a musket.) Bullets fired from a rifled barrel spin. This gives them greater
stability in flight and thus greater accuracy when fired. Since 1964, the standard infantry weapon in the US Army
has been the .22 calibre M16 rifle. Due to rifling, a bullet fired from an M16 rotates two and a half times on its
journey from the breech to the muzzle. Given a barrel length of 510 mm and a muzzle velocity of 950 m/s,
determine the average translational acceleration.
