Two astronauts on opposite ends of a spaceship are comparing lunches. One has an apple, the other has an orange. They decide to trade. Astronaut 1 tosses the 0.130kg apple toward astronaut 2 with a speed of vi,1 = 1.15 m/s . The 0.160kg orange is tossed from astronaut 2 to astronaut 1 with a speed of 1.25 m/s . Unfortunately, the fruits collide, sending the orange off with a speed of 1.06 m/s in the negative y direction. What are the final speed and direction of the apple in this case ?
While playing a game of billards, your 0.50kg cue ball, travelling at 1.9 m/s glances off a stationary 0.30 kg billard ball so that the billard ball moves off at 1.3 m/s at an angle of 32 degrees clockwise from the cue ball's original path. What is the final speed of the cue ball?
Two balls with masses and speed as shown collide into each other. Their plane of contact is vertical.
