- Imagine a collision between two balls: ball A has an initial momentum p of 2 kg-m/s to the right, and ball B is stationary before the collision. B has a mass of 1 kg. After the collision, the velocity of A is 2 m/s to the left and that of B is 3 m/s to the right. What are the mass and initial velocity of ball A? a) The mass of ball A is 5 kg, and its velocity 2 m/s. b) The mass of ball A is 1 kg, and its velocity 3 m/s. c) The mass of ball A is 2 kg, and its velocity 4 m/s. d) The mass of ball A is 0.5 kg, and its velocity 4 m/s.arrow_forwardA pitcher throws a baseball of mass m = 0.150m=0.150 kg with a velocity of 43.7 m/s. The momentum of the baseball is a numerical answer below.

It then collides with another stationary ball. What is the total momentum of the two balls after the collision? 13.2 kg.m/s 6.60 kg.m/s 26.4 kg.m/s 52.8 kg.m/sarrow_forward
- 1.) A car (mass=400 kg) is traveling down a country road (speed is 10 m/s) when it collides with a deer (mass=200 kg) which is running in the opposite direction (speed is 2 m/s). The collision results in the deer getting stuck on the windshield. Treat this collision using the 'conservation of momentum' principle: a) Draw a sketch - label each MASS and each VELOCITY (with arrows for direction). b) Calculate the final speed of the car (remember the deer is stuck on top of the car) after collision (Note: they stick together to form a single mass)arrow_forward1.

What is the total momentum (in kg m/s) of the system? 2. If the two balls stick together, what is their common speed (in m/s) after they collide? 3. How much kinetic energy (in joules, positive number) was lost in this collision? 4. If the two balls do not stick together, and the first ball moves at vịx = -1 m/s after they collide, what is the speed (in m/s) of the second ball?arrow_forward
