Problem 1: A ball of mass mı = 0.44 kg is moving to the right (in the +x-direction) with a speed V1,i = 3.3 m/sec collides head-on with a mass m2 = 0.22 kg at rest. If the collision is perfectly elastic, what will be the speed and direction of each ball after the collision? Answer: vı.f = 1.1 m/sec to the right and V2,f = 4.4 m/sec to the right.

Problem 1: A ball of mass m1 = 0.44 kg is moving to the right (in the +x-direction) with a speed
Vli = 3.3 m/sec collides head-on with a mass m2 = 0.22 kg at rest. If the collision is perfectly elastic, what
will be the speed and direction of each ball after the collision? Answer: v1.f = 1.1 m/sec to the right and
V2.f = 4.4 m/sec to the right.
Problem 2: Two billiard balls of equal mass undergo a perfectly elastic head-on collision. Ball 1 with mass
m1 = m is initially moving to the right with an initial speed v1.i = 2.0 m/sec and Ball 2 with mass m2 = m
is initially moving to the left with an initial speed v2 = 3.0 m/sec. What are the speed and direction of
Ball 1 and Ball 2 after the collision? Answer: v1.f = 3.0 m/sec to the left and v2.f = 2.0 m/sec to the right.
