14.51 In a game of billiards, ball A is given an initial velocity v along the
longitudinal axis of the table. It hits ball B and then ball C, which
are both at rest. Balls A and C are observed to hit the sides of the
1.8 m
– 1.2 m -
table squarely at A' and C', respectively, and ball B is observed to hit
the side obliquely at B'. Knowing that vo = 4 m/s, v, = 1.92 m/s, and
a = 1.65 m, determine (a) the velocities v and vc of balls B and C,
(b) the point C' where ball C hits the side of the table. Assume friction-
less surfaces and perfectly elastic impacts (i.e., conservation of energy).

A boy located at point A halfway between the center O of a semicircular wall and the wall itself throws a ball at the wall in a direction forming an angle of 45° with OA . Knowing that after hitting the wall the ball rebounds in a direction parallel to OA , determine the coefficient of restitution between the ball and the wall.
