A bowling ball of mass mb = 4.9 kg is rolled down the lane with a velocity of v1 = 2.6 m/s. It strikes a single remaining pin mp = 0.57 kg head on. After the collision the bowling ball has a velocity (in the same direction) of v2 = 1.45 m/s. a) What is the speed, in meters per second, of the pin after the collision?  b) Assuming the coefficient of friction is μk = 0.1, how far in meters could the pin slide before stopping if it doesn't topple?
