6.02f KE with vectors: using scalar product

1 A particle \(P\) of mass 12.5 kg is moving on a smooth horizontal plane when it collides obliquely with a fixed vertical wall. At the instant before the collision, the velocity of \(P\) is \(- 5 \mathbf { i } + 12 \mathbf { j } \mathrm {~ms} ^ { - 1 }\).
At the instant after the collision, the velocity of \(P\) is \(\mathbf { i } + 4 \mathbf { j } \mathrm {~ms} ^ { - 1 }\).

1. Find the magnitude of the momentum of \(P\) before the collision.
2. Find, in vector form, the impulse that the wall exerts on \(P\).
3. State, in vector form, the impulse that \(P\) exerts on the wall.
4. Find in either order.

2 A particle \(P\) of mass 2 kg is moving on a large smooth horizontal plane when it collides with a fixed smooth vertical wall. Before the collision its velocity is \(( 5 \mathbf { i } + 16 \mathbf { j } ) \mathrm { m } \mathrm { s } ^ { - 1 }\) and after the collision its velocity is \(( - 3 \mathbf { i } + \mathbf { j } ) \mathrm { m } \mathrm { s } ^ { - 1 }\).

1. The impulse imparted on \(P\) by the wall is denoted by INs. Find the following.
