Answer:

Amplitude—distance between the resting position and the maximum displacement of the wave

Frequency—number of waves passing by a specific point per second

Period—time it takes for one wave cycle to complete

wavelength λ - the distance between adjacent identical parts of a wave, parallel to the direction of propagation.

Tension - described as the pulling force transmitted axially by the means of a string, a cable, chain, or similar one-dimensional continuous object, or by each end of a rod, truss member, or similar three-dimensional object

Using the

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

The principle of momentum conservation states that if there no external force the total momentum of the system before and after the collision is conserved.

Since momentum is a vector, we should investigate the directions and magnitudes of initial and final momentum.

$\vec{P}_{initial} = \vec{P}_{final}\\\vec{P}_{initial} = m_1\vec{v}_1 + 0\\\vec{P}_{final} = m_1\vec{v}_1' + m_2 \vec{v}_2'$

If the first ball hits the second ball with an angle, we should separate the x- and y-components of the momentum (or velocity), and apply conservation of momentum separately on x- and y-directions.
