What is the ratio of the balls final speeds

Reference no: EM13655229

A ball of mass m = 2.1 kg moving with a speed of v0 = 15.2 m/sstrikes an identical ball which was initially at rest. After thecollision, the incoming ball (ball 1) goes off at q1 = 28°relative to its original direction and the struck ball (ball 2)moves off at q2 = 38°.

a) What is the magnitude of the initial momentum of the two ball system?
b) What is the ratio of the balls' final speeds?

Since there is no vertical momentum before the collision, the netvertical momentum must be zero after the collision.
Since the vertical momentum must be zero after the collision,what does that tell us about the ratio of vertical momentum of thetwo balls?

c) What is the final speed of the incoming ball? v1
d) What is the final speed of the struck ball? v2
