1. The magnitude of the final velocity of the cue ball is (B) 0.56m/s.

   What is Velocity

   • The definition of velocity is a vector measurement of the rate and direction of motion.
   • It is a moving body’s speed and direction of motion.

   How to calculate the magnitude of the final velocity?

   The magnitude of the final velocity can be calculated by following the steps:

   • The mass of the cue ball given is 0.4kg.
   • The velocity of the cue ball given is +0.80m/s.
   • The velocity of the striped ball before the collision is +0.38 m/s.
   • The velocity of the striped ball after collision is +0.62m/s.
   • We need to find the magnitude of the final velocity of the cue ball.

   Assuming all pool balls have the same mass: 0.4kg

   Let the final velocity of the cue ball be x.

   Now, To find the final velocity:

   • Mass of the cue ball × initial velocity of cue ball + Mass of striped ball + initial velocity of striped ball = mass of cue ball × final velocity + mass of striped ball × final velocity of the striped ball

   • (0.40)×(0.80)+(0.4)(0.38) = (0.4)(x)+(0.4)(0.62)
   • 0.32+0.152=0.4x+0.248
   • 0.472=0.4x+0.248
   • 0.472-0.248= 0.4x
   • 0.224/0.4 =x
   • x = 0.56m/s

   Therefore, the magnitude of the final velocity of the cue ball is (B) 0.56m/s.

   The correct question is given below:

   In a game of pool, a 0.4 kg cue ball is traveling at +0.80 m/s when it hits a slower striped ball moving at +0.38 m/s. After the collision, the striped ball moves off at +0.62 m/s. What is the magnitude of the final velocity of the cue ball? Assume all pool balls have the same mass.

   A. 0.20 m/s

   B. 0.56 m/s

   C. 1.0 m/s

   D. 1.8 m/s
