Question 1

A pitcher claims he can throw a baseball with as much momentum as a 3.00-g bullet moving with a speed of 1500 m/s. A baseball has a mass of 0.145 kg. What must be its speed if the pitcher's claim is valid?


Question 2

A U-238 nucleus (mass = 238 units) decays, transforming into an alpha particle (mass = 4.00 units) and a residual thorium nucleus (mass = 234 units). If the uranium nucleus was at rest, and the alpha particle has a speed of 1.50 × 107 m/s, determine the recoil speed of the thorium nucleus.
