A white billiard ball, moving horizontally strikes the number 2 billiard ball, at rest.
Before impact, the white ball was moving at a speed of 3.50 m/s and angle of 23°
from the horizontal, and after impact it is moving at 0.75 m/s at 47° from the
horizontal.
a. If the two balls have equal masses of 140 g, what is the velocity of the red
ball after the impact? Include its magnitude and direction.
A ball with mass mA = 2.42 g moves eastward with speed vA = 1.73 m/s. It then collides with another
ball of mass mB = 1.25 g and is moving northward with a speed vB = 2.26 m/s. After the collision,
ball A now moves at 48° north of east, while ball B moves at 17° south of east.
A. What are the speeds of the two balls after the collision?
B. Is energy lost or gained in the system? Support your answer by calculating the change in
mechanical energy of the system.
A billiard ball (1kg) and a big piece of chewing gum (0.2kg) are moving at each other. The billiard
ball has an initial velocity of 4 m/s to the right, and the chewing gum has a velocity of 20 m/s to
the left. What is the final velocity of both the chewing gum and the billiard ball when they stick
together after colliding?
