Textbook Question
Chapter 14.2, Problem 14.43P
Three spheres, each with a mass of m, can slide freely on a frictionless. horizontal surface. Spheres A and B are attached to an inextensible. inelastic cord with a length l and are at rest in the position shown when sphere B is struck squarely by sphere C, which is moving with a velocity v0. Knowing that the cord is taut when sphere B is struck by sphere C and assuming perfectly elastic impact between B and C, and thus the conservation of energy for the entire system, determine the velocity of each sphere immediately after impact.
