A proton traveling at 3.0106m/s scatters elastically from an initially stationary alpha particle and is deflected at an angle of 85 with respect to its initial velocity. Given that the alpha particle has four times the mass of the proton, what percent of its initial kinetic energy does the proton retain after the collision?
A head-on, elastic collision occurs between two billiard balls of equal mass. If a red ball is traveling to the right with speed v and a blue ball is traveling to the left with speed 3v before the collision, what statement is true concerning their velocities subsequent to the collision? Neglect any effects of spin. (a) The red ball travels to the left with speed v, while the blue ball travels to the right with speed 3v. (b) The red ball travels to the left with speed v, while the blue ball continues to move to the left with a speed 2v. (c) The red ball travels to the left with speed 3v, while the blue ball travels to the right with speed v. (d) Their final velocities cannot be determined because momentum is not conserved in the collision. (e) The velocities cannot be determined without knowing the mass of each ball.
In an elastic collision of two particles with masses m1 and m2, the initial velocities are u1 and u2 = u1. If the initial kinetic energies of the two particles are equal, find the conditions on u1/u2 and m1/m2 such that m1 is at rest after the collision. Examine both cases for the sign of .

A tennis ball of mass 57.0 g is held just above a basketball of mass 590 g. With their centers vertically aligned, both balls are released from rest at the same time, falling through a distance of 1.20 m, as shown in Figure P6.45. (a) Find the magnitude of the basketballs velocity the instant before the basketball reaches the ground. (b) Assume that an elastic collision with the ground instantaneously reverses the velocity of the basketball so that it collides with the tennis ball just above it. To what height does the tennis ball rebound? Figure P6.45
Two blocks of masses m1 = 2.00 kg and m2 = 4.00 kg are released from rest at a height of h = 5.00 m on a friction less track as shown in Figure P9.77.

A cannon is rigidly attached to a carriage, which can move along horizontal rails but is connected to a post by a large spring, initially unstretchcd and with force constant k = 2.00 104 N/m, as shown in Figure P8.60.
