Practicing Success
A ball traveling with some velocity v hits another ball elastically which is stationary. What will happen to the system? |
Both the balls become stationary The stationary ball remains at rest and the moving ball starts moving in opposite direction The stationary ball will start moving with a velocity v and the moving ball will come at rest Both the balls start moving |
The stationary ball will start moving with a velocity v and the moving ball will come at rest |
In this case also we need to conserve the momentum and write the expression for e. After some calculation we will find that the stationary ball will start moving with a velocity v and the moving ball will come at rest. |
