Two spheres collide on a horizontal surface (all velocities, before and after the collision, are in the x-y plane). Throughout this problem, assume that all forces aside from those exerted by the spheres themselves are negligible (at least in comparison). Sphere A has a mass of 0.65 grams. It has an initial speed of 6.0 m/s and an initial velocity that is oriented at an angle of θ A i = 28 degrees below the x-axis. Sphere B has a mass of 0.45 grams. It has an initial speed of 6.5 m/s and an initial velocity that is oriented at an angle of θ B i = 35 degrees above the x-axis. After the collision, sphere A has a speed of 3.5 m/s and a velocity that is directed at an angle of θ A f = 16 degrees above the x-axis. What is the final speed, in units of meters per second, of sphere B?

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. You should not need to solve equations for the whole system. v1 = v0 M/m v1 = 2 vo m/M v1= v0 m/(m+M) v1 = 2 vo m/(m+M)
