Answer:
m1/6 ( c )
Explanation:
since all the balls starts having the same momentum after the two collisions we will apply the principal of conservation of energy
After first collision
m1v = m1v1 + m2v2 --- ( 1 )
After second collision
m2v2 = m2v2 + m3v3 ---- ( 2 )
combining equations 1 and 2
m1v = m1v1 + m2v2 + m3v3 ----- ( 3 )
All balls moving at the same momentum ( p ) = m1v1 = m2v2 = m3v3
note ; 3p = m1v ∴ m3 = ----- ( 4 )
applying conservation of energy
3v = v1 + v2 + v3 ------- ( 5 )
also 3m1v1 = m1v = v1 = v/3 =
v2 + v3 = 8/3 v ----- ( 6 )
next eliminate V3 for equation 6 by applying conservation of energy and momentum
m1 = 2m2 ------ ( 7 )
now using p1 = p2 = m1v1 = 1/2 m1v1 hence v2 = 2v1 where v1 = 1/3 v
hence ; v2 = 2/3 v ------- ( 8 )
solving with equation 6 and 8
v3 = 2v ------ ( 9 ) ∴ v/v3 = 1/2 ---- ( 10 )
solving with equation 9 and 10
m3 = m1/3 * 1/2 = m1/6
To solve this problem we will apply the principles of energy conservation. The kinetic energy in the object must be maintained and transformed into the potential electrostatic energy. Therefore mathematically
Here,
m = mass (At this case of the proton)
v = Velocity
k = Coulomb's constant
= Charge of each object
r= Distance between them
Rearranging to find the second charge we have that
Replacing,
Therefore the charge on the sphere is 3.6531nC
