Question

Object 1 with a mass of 4.90 kg, moving right at a speed of 8.60 m/s along a frictionless surface, collides head-on with Object 2 with a mass of 3.30 kg moving left at a speed of 11.4 m/s. After the collision, the Object 1 is moving left at 2.10 m/s.

a) The final speed of Object 2 would be what?

b) Which of the following properly compares the impulses on each object during the collision?

The impulses are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.

The impulses on each object are equal in both direction and magnitude.

The magnitude of the impulse on object 1 is greater then the magnitude of the impulse on object 2.

The magnitude of the impulse on object 2 is greater then the magnitude of the impulse on object 1.

c) What is true about the totel momentum before and after the collision?

Different in magnitude and direction

Different in magnitude but in the same direction

Equal in magnitude but opposite in direction

Equal in magnitude and direction
