An ball bearing of mass m rolls along a horizontal rail at velocity vo and strikes a stationary ball bearing of mass M, which then recoils with a velocity v1 after a perfectly elastic collision. By considering special cases for the relative values of m and M, you can determine which of the following expressions for v1 is correct.

A projectile with a mass m = 200 kg and a velocity v = 100 m s−1 is fired at an angle of ϕ = 60 ◦ . At the highest point of its trajectory, it explodes and breaks into three pieces with the same mass. Two pieces have the same velocity magnitude as the projectile shortly before the explosion. One of those two pieces moves vertically downwards, and the other moves horizontally forward. a) Compute the velocity of the third piece right after the explosion. b) What was the released energy of the explosion?
