- 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.arrow_forwardInitially, ball 1 rests on an incline of height h, and ball 2 rests on an incline of height h/2 as shown in Figure P11.40. They are released from rest simultaneously and collide elastically in the trough of the track. If m2 = 4 m1, m1 = 0.045 kg, and h = 0.65 m, what is the velocity of each ball after the collision?arrow_forwardA 2-kg object moving to the right with a speed of 4 m/s makes a head-on, elastic collision with a 1-kg object that is initially at rest. The velocity of the 1-kg object after the collision is (a) greater than 4 m/s, (b) less than 4 m/s, (c) equal to 4 m/s, (d) zero, or (e) impossible to say based on the information provided.arrow_forward
- Review. A bullet of mass m = 8.00 g is fired into a block of mass M = 250 g that is initially at rest at the edge of a frictionless table of height h = 1.00 m (Fig. P9.45).

- A block with mass m1 = 0.500 kg is released from rest on a frictionless track at a distance h1, = 2.50 m above the top of a table. It then collides elastically with an object having mass m2 = 1.00 kg that is initially at rest on the table, as shown in Figure P6.71. (a) Determine the velocities of the two objects just after the collision. (b) How high up the track does the 0.500-kg object travel back after the collision? (c) How far away from the bottom of the table does the1.00-kg object land, given that the height of the table h2 = 2.00 m? (d) How far away from the bottom of the table does the 0.500-kg object eventually band?

Assuming that the mass of the drivers is much, much less than that of the bumper cars, what are their final speeds?arrow_forwardConsider a frictionless track as shown in Figure P6.62.
