As shown in the figure,a pendulum $A$ is released from an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with the vertical and strikes a pendulum $B$ of equal mass. After the collision,to what height (in $m$) will pendulum $A$ rise? Neglect the size of the pendulum and assume the collision is perfectly elastic.

  • A
    $0.1$
  • B
    $0.2$
  • C
    $0.3$
  • D
    It will not rise.

Consider the situation as shown in the figure. The ball strikes the wall normally and the collision is elastic. The wall is moving with a velocity of $20 \ m/s$ to the right,and the ball is moving with a velocity of $10 \ m/s$ to the left. The mass of the ball is $500 \ g$. The change in the kinetic energy of the ball is $....J$.

Derive the expressions for the velocities of two bodies after a one-dimensional elastic collision.

After a head-on elastic collision between two balls of equal masses,one is observed to have a speed of $3\,m/s$ along the positive $x$-axis and the other has a speed of $2\,m/s$ along the negative $x$-axis. What were the original velocities of the balls?

An alpha-particle of mass $m$ undergoes a $1$-dimensional elastic collision with a nucleus of unknown mass $M$ at rest. It is scattered directly backwards,losing $64\%$ of its initial kinetic energy. The mass of the nucleus is .......... $m$.

$A$ ball of mass $m$ is thrown at a wall with speed $v$ at an angle $\theta$ with the normal to the wall. If the coefficient of restitution is $e$,what will be the magnitude and direction of the velocity of the ball after the collision with respect to the wall?
