Answer:
(a) the total momentum of the system before the collision = -2m kg.m/s.
(b) the total momentum of the system after the collision = -2m kg.m/s.
(c) puck 1's velocity after the collision in component form = (5.44 i, 2.54 j)
Explanation:
Given;
mass of Puck 1 , = m
mass of Puck 2, = m (since they have the same mass m)
initial velocity of Puck 1, u₁ = 10 m/s to the left
initial velocity of Puck 2, u₂ = 8 m/s to the right
Let the rightward direction be positive direction
Let the leftward direction be negative direction
(a) the total momentum of the system before the collision;
P₁ = (initial momentum of Pluck 1) + (initial momentum of Pluck 2)
P₁ = (-mu₁) + mu₂
P₁ = mu₂ - mu₁
P₁ = m(u₂ - u₁)
P₁ = m(8 - 10)
P₁ = -2m kg.m/s
(b) the total momentum of the system after the collision;
Based on the principle of conservation of linear momentum, the total momentum before collision is equal to the total momentum after collision.
Thus, the total momentum of the system after the collision is -2m kg.m/s.
(c) puck 1's velocity after the collision in component form
