Evaluate what the mass of the target ball

Reference no: EM13669838

A softball of mass 0.220 kilogram that is moving with a speed of 4.0 m/s (in the positive direction) collides head-on and elastically with another ball initially at rest. Afterward it is found that the incoming ball has bounced backward with a speed of 1.6 m/s.

(a) Find the velocity of the target ball after the collision.

m/s

(b) Evaluate the mass of the target ball.
