A rifle shoots a 7.00 gram bullet at 285 meters per second over a level field at a 20.0 gram soda can resting on a 1.25 meter post. If the bullet pierces the can right through its center and exits at 245 meters per second (continuing in the same direction as it was fired), where will the can land on the ground?

Two manned satellites approaching one another at a relative speed of 0.550 m/s intend to dock. the first has a mass of 2.50 ✕ 103 kg, and the second a mass of 7.50 ✕ 103 kg. assume that the positive direction is directed from the second satellite towards the first satellite. (a) calculate the final velocity after docking, in the frame of reference in which the first satellite was originally at rest.(b) what is the loss of kinetic energy in this inelastic collision? (c) repeat both parts, in the frame of reference in which the second satellite was originally at rest. final velocity(d) loss of kinetic energy = ?
