### Exploring Uncertainties in Energy MeasurementsIn this educational session, we will explore the uncertainties in energy calculations. Consider the scenario where we have uncertainties in the variables \( m_1 \), \( v_1 \), \( m_2 \), and \( v_2 \). These uncertainties are represented as \( \delta m_1 \), \( \delta v_1 \), \( \delta m_2 \), and \( \delta v_2 \) respectively.Given this setup, we have the following partial derivatives relating to energy \( E \):\[ \frac{\partial E}{\partial m_1} = \frac{1}{2}v_1^2 \]\[ \frac{\partial E}{\partial v_1} = m_1 v_1 \]\[ \frac{\partial E}{\partial m_2} = \frac{1}{2}v_2^2 \]\[ \frac{\partial E}{\partial v_2} = m_2 v_2 \]The question at hand is: What is the uncertainty in the energy, denoted by \( \delta E \)? By understanding these partial derivatives, we can discern the relationship between the uncertainties in the parameters and the resulting uncertainty in energy. This will be useful for various practical applications where precise measurements are critical, such as in physics experiments or engineering calculations. **Exploring Momentum and Partial Derivatives**In this section, let's delve into the concept of momentum and examine the necessary partial derivatives. We aim to find the partial derivatives for momentum with respect to different variables. Consider the following equations:\[ \frac{\partial P}{\partial v_1} = m_1 \]\[ \frac{\partial P}{\partial m_1} = v_1 \]\[ \frac{\partial P}{\partial v_2} = m_2 \]\[ \frac{\partial P}{\partial m_2} = v_2 \]Now, we pose the question: **What's the uncertainty in momentum \(\delta P\)?**These partial derivatives represent the rates of change of momentum concerning velocity (\(v_1\) and \(v_2\)) and mass (\(m_1\) and \(m_2\)). Understanding these derivatives is crucial in analyzing how variations in velocity and mass affect the overall momentum.

DIRECTIONS: FILL IN THE BLANKS TO COMPLETE THE SOLUTION One newly discovered light particle has a mass of m and property q. Suppose it moves within the vicinity of an extremely heavy (fixed in place) particle with a property Q and mass M. When the light particle is xi distance from the heavy particle, it is moving directly away from the heavy particle with a speed of vi. a) What is the lighter particle's speed when it is xf away from the heavy particle? Consider a new expression for gravitation potential energy as: PEgrav = -(Am1m2)/r , where A is a constant, m1 and m2 are the masses of the two objects, and r is the distance between them. Moreover, the new particle has an additional interaction with the heavy particle through the following force expression Fnew=1/(4pi(epsilon0) (qQ/r2) where is a constant that is read as epsilon subscript 0, q and Q are their new properties, r is the distance between the new particle and the heavy particle.

Two objects have a perfectly elastic collision, as exactly illustrated in the diagram below. The first object (red ball) comes in at some initial speed and strikes the second one (blue ball), which was initially stationary in our reference frame. What is the speed of the blue ball after the collision? Write your answer as a fraction of v1. In other words, if you get v2 = 0.20v1, just enter 0.20. All we know is the proportionality of the masses and the relative speed of the first ball before and after the collision.
