EXAMPLE 9-16 TWO FRUITS IN TWO DIMENSIONS: ANALYZING AN ELASTIC COLLISIONTwo astronauts on opposite ends of a spaceship are comparinglunches. One has an apple, the other has an orange. They decideto trade. Astronaut 1 tosses the 0.130-kg apple toward astronaut2 with a speed of 1.11 m>s. The 0.160-kg orange is tossed from astronaut 2 to astronaut 1 with a speed of 1.21 m>s. Unfortunately,the fruits collide, sending the orange off with a speed of 1.16 m>sat an angle of 42.0° with respect to its original direction of motion. Find the final speed and direction of the apple, assuming anelastic collision. Give the apple’s direction relative to its originaldirection of motion.

Suppose a fairly large asteroid that has a mass of 5.001012 kg (about a kilometer across) strikes the Moon ata speed of 15.0 km/s.
