(Va)ı 5/4 B (vB)1
Two smooth disks A and B each have a mass of 0.5 kg. Both disks are moving with the velocities shown when they collide. Suppose that (vA)1 = 9 m/s , (vB)1 = 8 m/s.
The figure shows two discs, A and B, moving toward the origin of a horizontal xy-plane, where they collide, so that their common tangent lies on y-axis. Disk A moves in negative x-direction with velocity left-parenthesis v subscript A right-parenthesis subscript 1. Block B moves from the third quarter with velocity left-parenthesis v subscript B right-parenthesis subscript 1, directed along an inclined line with a slope of four-thirds.
Determine the coefficient of restitution between the disks if after collision B travels along a line, 30∘ counterclockwise from the y axis.
