Scenario: A sheet of paper is hung in the air, and a boxer punches it. Which experiences a greater force?
The boxer, the paper, or both ???

Aparticle of mass m is projected with an initial velocity v0 in a direction making an angle α with the horizontal level ground as shown in the figure. the motion of the particle occurs under a uniform gravitational field g pointing downward. (a) write down the lagrangian of the system by using the cartesian coordinates (x, y). (b) is there any cyclic coordinate(s). if so, interpret it (them) physically. (c) find the euler-lagrange equations. find at least one constant of motion. (d) solve the differential equation in part (c) and obtain x and y coordinates of the projectile as a function of time. (e) construct the hamiltonian of the system, h, and write down the hamilton’s equations (canonical equations) of motion.

Two carts, one of mass 2m and one of mass m, approach each other with the same speed, v. when the carts collide, they hook together. assume that positive momentum is to the right. which graph best represents the momentum of both carts over time, before and after the collision?

Aparticle initially located at the origin has an acceleration of = 2.00ĵ m/s2 and an initial velocity of i = 8.00î m/s. find (a) the vector position of the particle at any time t (where t is measured in seconds), (b) the velocity of the particle at any time t, (c) the position of the particle at t = 7.00 s, and (d) the speed of the particle at t = 7.00
