Question

A cue ball of mass ml 0.365 kg is shot at another billiard ball, with mass m2 055 kg, which is at rest. The cue ball has an initial speed of v = 8.5 m/s in the positive direction. Assume that the collision is elastic and exactly head-on. ? 25% Part (a) write an expression for the horizontal component of the billiard ball’s velocity, vr after the collision, in terms of the other variables of the problem. -& 25% Part (b) what is this velocity, in meters per second? 25% Part (c) Write an expression for the horizontal component of the cue ball’s velocity, vr, after the collision. 25% Part (d) what is the horizontal component of the cue ball’s final velocity, in meters per second?

    Answer:

    Part a)

    Expression of speed of billiard ball is given as

    v_r = \frac{2m_1 v}{m_1 + m_2}

    Part b)

    Velocity of billiard ball is given as

    v_r = 6.78 m/s

    Part c)

    Expression for the speed of cue ball is given as

    v_c = \frac{(m_1 - m_2) v}{m_1 + m_2}

    Part d)

    Speed of cue ball is given as

    v_c = -1.72 m/s

    Explanation:

    Part a)

    As we know that there is no external force on the system of two balls

    so momentum is conserved here

    so we have

    m_1 v  + m_2 (0) = m_1 v_c + m_2 v_r

    also we know that the collision is elastic collision so we have

    v_r - v_c = v - 0

    so we have

    v_c = v_r - v

    so we have

    m_1 v = m_1(v_r - v) + m_2 v_r

    v_r = \frac{2m_1 v}{m_1 + m_2}

    Part b)

    Velocity of billiard ball is given as

    v_r = \frac{2(0.365)(8.5)}{0.365 + 0.55}

    v_r = 6.78 m/s

    Part c)

    Now the speed of cue ball is given as

    v_c = v_r - v

    v_c = \frac{2m_1 v}{m_1 + m_2} - v

    v_c = \frac{(m_1 - m_2) v}{m_1 + m_2}

    Part d)

    Now by above formula the speed of the cue ball is given as

    v_c = \frac{0.365 - 0.55}{0.365 + 0.55}(8.5)

    v_c = -1.72 m/s
