Question

If In an elastic collision, a 1.0 kg1.0 \mathrm{~kg} ball moving at 1.0 m/s1.0 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s} collides with a 2.0 kg2.0 \mathrm{~kg} ball moving at 2.0 m/s-2.0 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}. The 2.0 kg2.0 \mathrm{~kg} ball transfers all of its momenta to the 1.0 kg1.0 \mathrm{~kg} ball.
a. What velocity does the 1.0 kg1.0 \mathrm{~kg} ball have after the collision?
b. What is the initial kinetic energy of the system?
c. What is the final kinetic energy of the system?

Step 1
1 of 9

a)In the first part of this task we have to calculate velocity of the ball after the impact if known information are:

m1=1 kgv01=1 m/sm2=2 kgv02=2 m/s\begin{aligned} &m_1=1 \text{ kg}\\ &v_{01}=1 \text{ m/s}\\ &m_2=2 \text{ kg}\\ &v_{02}=-2 \text{ m/s}\\ \end{aligned}

where subscription 1 is related to the first ball and subscription 2 is related to the second ball(2 kg).
