A billiard ball collides with a stationary identical billiard ball to make it move. If the collision is perfectly elastic, the first ball comes to rest after collision.

<h3>Why does the first ball comes to rest after collision ?</h3>

Let m be the mass of the two identical balls.  

u1 = velocity before the collision of ball 1

u2 = 0 = velocity of second ball that is at rest

v1 and v2 are the velocities of the balls after the collision.

From the conservation of momentum,

∴ mu1 + mu2 = mv1 + mv2

∴ mu1 = mv1 + mv2

∴ u1 = v1 + v2

In an elastic collision, the kinetic energy of the system before and after collision remains same.

\frac{1}{2}  mu_1^2+0=\frac{1}{2}  mv_1^2+\frac{1}{2}  mv_2^2

∴  \frac{1}{2}  m(v_1+v_2 )^2=\frac{1}{2} mv_1^2+\frac{1}{2}mv_2^2

∴ \frac{1}{2} mv_1^2+\frac{1}{2} mv_2^2+mv_1 v_2=\frac{1}{2}  mv_1^2+\frac{1}{2} mv_2^2

∴ mv₁v₂ = 0

  1. It is impossible for the mass to be zero.
  2. Because the second ball moves, velocity v2 cannot be zero.
  3. As a result, the velocity of the first ball, v1, is zero, indicating that it comes to rest after collision.
<h3>What is collision ?</h3>

An elastic collision is a collision between two bodies in which the total kinetic energy of the two bodies remains constant. There is no net transfer of kinetic energy into other forms such as heat, noise, or potential energy in an ideal, fully elastic collision.

Determine the linear velocity of an object with an angular velocity of 5.9 radians per second at a distance of 12 centimeters fr
Andre45 [30]
The linear velocity of a rotating object is the product of the angular velocity and the radius of the circular motion. Angular velocity is the rate of the change of angular displacement of a body that is in a circular motion. It is a vector quantity so it consists of a magnitude and direction. From the problem, the angular velocity is 5.9 rad per second and the radius is given as 12 centimeters. We calculate as follows:

Linear velocity = angular velocity (radius)
Linear velocity = 5.9 (12 ) = 70.8 cm / s

The linear velocity of the body in motion is 70.8 centimeters per second or 0.708 meters per second.
