    How Do Velocities Change After a Collision Between Two Spherical Particles?

    Okay :) thank you! Will do that now! Could you please help me with my collisions question? I have gotten a good bit of it done but am stuck at a point!

    How Do Velocities Change After a Collision Between Two Spherical Particles?

    So should I use my velocity value as vectors, ie instead of v1=9, let it equal 9i?

    How Do Velocities Change After a Collision Between Two Spherical Particles?

    Okay, so far I have Mathematically condition i.) gives m1,v1,0+m2v2,0=m1,v1,1+m2v2,1 ie. 2.5(v1,1)+6(v2,1)=22.5+36 = 58.5 while ii.) gives(v2,1-v1,1)= e(v2,0-v1,0).n and iii.) gives (v2,1-v1,1).m= (v2,0-v1,0).m =0 since n=v2,0-v1,0 Its easiest to work in components let...

    Mechanics question involving spring and hookes law.

    My lamda value is 4. What I have managed to get so far is: dV/dx=-F V=8/arctan(x/3)dx /=integrate sign! integrate by parts u=arctan(x/3), dv=dx du=3/9+x^2dx, v=x V=8/arctan(x/3)dx = 8[x.arctan(x/3)-/3x/9+x^2dx] V= 8[x.arctan(x/3)-3/2log(9+x^2)+C] Since V(0)=0 V=...

    How Do Velocities Change After a Collision Between Two Spherical Particles?

    I don't really have much of an idea to be honest, nor do my classmates. We have been looking at it all night :( Basically what I have so far is.. I have constructed my diagram. Particle 1: m1=2.5, v1=9 Particle 2: m2=6, v2=6 Particles interact along line, to n=v1-v2 we also need m, a...

    How Do Velocities Change After a Collision Between Two Spherical Particles?

    A smooth spherical particle with mass 2.5 kg collides with a second smooth spherical particle of mass 6kg. Before the collision, the first particle has velocity 9ms^1 in the positive x-direction while the second particle has velocity 6ms^1 in the positive y-direction. At the instant of...
