The mass of the second ball
Answer to Problem 67GP
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Mass of the first ball
Mass of the second ball
Initial velocity of first ball before collision
Initial velocity of second ball before collision
Final velocity of first ball after collision
Final velocity of second ball after collision
Formula Used:
According conservation of momentum principle,
Also, for elastic collision,
Calculation:
According to conservation of momentum for the elastic collision between the two balls,
Using conservation of kinetic energy
Conclusion:
Therefore mass of the second ball is
