Answer:
a= 18.4m
b= 26.2m
Explanation:
Please see the attached picture for full solution.
Explanation:
It is given that,
Velocity of particle 1, u₁ = 10 m/s
Velocity of particle 2, u₂ = 5 m/s
Let v₁ and v₂ are the final speed of both particles after the collision. Applying the conservation of momentum as :
......................(1)
For an elastic collision, the coefficient of restitution is equal to 1 as :
................(2)
On solving equation (1) and (2), we get,
So, the speeds of particle 1 and particle 2 after the collision is 5 m/s and 10 m/s respectively. Hence, this is the required solution.
