AP Physics Momentum Problems

Question

Mass A (10.0 kg) is travelling west at 8.00 m/s and collides inelastically with Mass B (30.0 kg) which is travelling east at 4.00 m/s. Find the resulting velocity of mass A. show direction as 'north, south, east, or west'.

Daniel plays middle linebacker for east's varsity football team. In a game against cross-town rival west, he delivered a hit to west's 82.0-kg running back, changing his southward velocity of 7.80 m/s into a northward velocity of 3.00 m/s. Determine the impulse delivered by Daniel (both direction and magnitude) leave your answer in kg*m/s for units. For direction, use north, south, east, or west
