**Problem Statement:**Two balls collide on a pool table. The larger ball of mass 2 kg experiences an acceleration of magnitude 5 m/s² during the collision. What is the magnitude of the acceleration experienced by the smaller ball (mass 0.5 kg) during the collision?**Options:**A) 10 m/s² B) 1.25 m/s² C) 5 m/s² D) 2.5 m/s² E) 20 m/s² **Solution Explanation:**To solve this problem, we use Newton's Second Law of Motion, which states that force \( (F) \) equals mass \( (m) \) multiplied by acceleration \( (a) \), i.e., \( F = ma \).1. **Calculate the Force on the Larger Ball:** Given the mass of the larger ball is 2 kg and its acceleration is 5 m/s²: \[ F = 2 \, \text{kg} \times 5 \, \text{m/s}^2 = 10 \, \text{N} \]2. **Calculate the Acceleration of the Smaller Ball:** Since the same force acts on both balls, use \( F = ma \) to find the acceleration of the smaller ball. For a smaller ball of mass 0.5 kg: \[ 10 \, \text{N} = 0.5 \, \text{kg} \times a \] Solving for \( a \): \[ a = \frac{10 \, \text{N}}{0.5 \, \text{kg}} = 20 \, \text{m/s}^2 \]**Correct Answer:** E) 20 m/s²

Two 1.9 kg bodies, A and B, collide. The velocities before the collision are v A= (14î + 34 j) m/s and v = (-15î + 9.0j) m/s. After the collision, v = (-7.oî + 16 j) m/s. (a) What is the final velocity of B? m/s (b) What is the change in the total kinetic energy (including sign)? 121.69 J The net external force on the two particle system is zero; thus, the net momentum of the system cannot change.
