Question
Question 3: A 5.0 kg ball is rolling north at 2.50 m/s when it collides with a 6.0 kg ball which is
initially at rest.
Write the equations you would use to find the velocities of the balls in question 3 if the
collision were instead perfectly elastic. (You do not need to solve the equations for the
actual velocities.)

- can you help with 8 sub parts a, b, and carrow_forwardLearning Goal: To understand the relationship between force, impulse, and momentum. The effect of a net force EF acting on an object is related both to the force and to the total time the force acts on the object. The physical quantity impulse J is a measure of both these effects. For a constant net force, the impulse is given by J = FAt. The impulse is a vector pointing in the same direction as the force vector. The units of J are N. sor kg · m/s. Recall that when a net force acts on an object, the object will accelerate, causing a change in its velocity. Hence the chiect's momentum in- mail will also change.

- In order to answer this question, follow the steps provided and remember that the total initial momentum of the system must equal the total final momentum. Also, remember that momentum and velocity are vector quantities so you must specify a negative sign if the motion is to the left. A green truck of mass 2500 kg travels to the right with a velocity vig = 3.7 m/s. The green truck approaches a red truck with mass 1460 kg that is traveling to the left with a velocity of vir = -3 m/s. The trucks collide and stick together after the collision. What is the final velocity, vf of the green-red truck system after the collision.
