Chapter 12, Problem 43AP
Two racquetballs, each having a mass of 170 g, are placed in a glass jar as shown in Figure P12.43. Their centers lie on a straight line that makes a 45° angle with the horizontal. (a) Assume the walls are frictionless and determine P1, P2, and P3. (b) Determine the magnitude of the force exerted by the left ball on the right ball.
