Question
Two disks on the friction-free air table with a mass of Ma=0.5kg and Mb=0.3kg are colliding flexibly as shown in the figure. After collision, find the speed of disk B and the disks scattering angle (α and β angles).

Transcribed Image Text:sin a + cos a = 1
sin 8+ cos B = 1
cos(a + B) = cosa · cosß - sina · sinß
cos(a - B) = cosa · cosß + sina · sinß
sin(a + B) = sina · cosß + cosa · sinß
sin(a – ß) = sina · cosß – cosa · sinß

- A pendulum consists of a 1.7-kg block hanging on a 2.5-m length string. A 0.02-kg bullet moving with a horizontal velocity of 686 m/s strikes, passes through, and emerges from the block (initially at rest) with a horizontal velocity of 346 m/s. To what maximum height above its initial position will the block swing? Write your answer in meters.arrow_forwardA ball is attached to one end of a wire, the other end being fastened to the ceiling. The wire is held horizontal, and the ball is released from rest (see the drawing). It swings downward and strikes a block initially at rest on a horizontal frictionless surface. Air resistance is negligible, and the collision is elastic. The masses of the ball and block are, respectively, 1.7 kg and 2.5 kg, and the length of the wire is 1.36 m. Find the velocity (magnitude and direction) of the ball just after the collision.arrow_forwardPlease asaparrow_forward
