3) A lump of clay of mass 1.20 kg is shot straight up into the air from a Lump o' Clay 2000, the latest in lump-of-day shooting technology. The lump of d lay has a speed of 43.0 m/s when it leaves the LoC2k's barrel.After precisely 1.10 s of flight, the lump of clay strikes a 3.59 kg drone that was in a stationary hover just above, and the lump of day and drone stick together. Assume that the propulsion system of the drone becomes disabled the moment it is struck by the lump of clay. Also ignore air resistance (The drone was flying magically. Don't worry about that part). (HINT: Draw a picture.)
e) How much kinetic energy will the lump-of-clay+drone have when they fall back down to the level of the top of the LoC2k's barrel. (4 points)
c) Immediately after the collision, what speed does the combination lump-of-clay+drone have? (4 points)
d) What is the maximum height (measured from the top of the LoC2k's barrel) the lump-of-clay+drone will reach? (4 points)
a) How high above the top of the LoC2k's barrel was the drone? (4 points)
b) Immediately before the collision, what speed does the lump of clay have? (4 points)
