I think I can pretty much figure this out except one important detail that I don't know how to include: the angle of the face of the putter.

mass of putter (m1): .1325kg
initial velocity of putter (v1): 1.253 m/s
Angle of face of putter: 3 degrees
mass of golf ball (m2): .0047kg
initial velocity of golf ball (v2): 0

I'm pretty sure I need to solve for v1(final) and v2(final) in this formula:

Conservation of Momentum: m1v1 + m2v2 = m1v1(final) + m2v2(final)

Then plug them into the Energy Conservation formula to find the velocity of v2(final)...

Energy conservation: (.5)m1v1^2 + (.5)m2v2^2 = (.5)m1v1(final)^2 + m2v2(final)^2

....but, I have no idea where, when, or how to account for the angle of the putter.....not all the energy from the putter is directed into the horizontal motion of the golf ball.

If anyone can help, I'd so greatly appreciate it. I've been working on this forever.

I'm 18, sometimes paranoid, have a wild imagination, almost always nervous, and can get scared easily.
How can I decrease the intensity of my fears without sacrificing anything?

I bought a used electric motor with a squirrel cage housing and I want to make a dust collector for my wood shop. When I plug the motor in, the motor will hum but will not turn. It will only turn if I spin the cage by hand. Once I do that, it works fine. Is there something I'm missing or did I get stuck with a bad motor?

I have a friend who has been receiving threatening e-mail and the people who are writing these things have even shown up at his door and they live over 100 miles apart.

I have to write a 5 paragraph essay on World War II using a individual, a group of people, or an event as my subject. There is so much to write about like the massacre of 6 million Jews, bombing at Hiroshima, D-Day, and so forth. I would like to know which subject on WWII you think is interesting, exciting, perhaps mysterious to many people, pivotal, and contraversal or argueable. If possible, please provide links or sources to your topic. I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.

Here is my question: let's say I buy $1,000 worth of call options. Before expiration, the stock price raises well above the strike price. I now want to take advantage of the gain and exercize the option. I want to buy at the strike and immediately sell it. The problem is, I don't exactly have enough funds to do that. Is it common for brokers to lend you the money just for a split second? They should see that you will give it right back to them in a second, it could even be automated. I asked Scottrade about this though and they said they didn't do this. So my question is, are there any brokers who do? How common is it? It seems like something they all should offer.

I met a nice, well-educated man online 2.5 yrs ago and at that time we chatted from time to time online and even shared some phone conversations. He seemed to be a very busy individual so I did not initiate further contact with him. We rescently have started talking again via online and the phone (beginning of January) and he is totally into me and says he wants to move to the state I live in and be with me. I am 34 and he is 37. He said he did this one other time with someone when he was in his 20's (met a girl one weekend and moved across country to be with her and was with her for 4 yrs). He is determined to get married and has made it very clear he wants to and wants it to be me! He is flying me out to meet him in person next month...am I crazy? He says if things go well with this meeting he wants to move to my state with intentions to marry me. On top of all this I just got out of a serious relationship less than 2 mnths ago. What do I do?? Any advise would be helpful.
