I am unsure how to proceed with this problem because it is asking for the final velocity of one of the two objects given the initial velocities. This is an inelastic collision not a completely inelastic collision, which means the two objects do not stick together. The book makes a distinction...
Wow, I can't believe I did that. I used 30 degrees instead of 20 there. hah!
I need to pay attention when I input the values into the calculator.
I have made the changes. Please let me know if you see anything else wrong with it. particularly part b) I don't know if that is how it is supposed...
Thanks for pointing that out. I have corrected that error.
Is there anything else wrong with the solution?
solve for components
\vec{P}_{x}=0.152(-45.033-32)=-11.7 Ns
\vec{P}_{y}=0.152(26-0)=3.952 Ns
P=\sqrt{(-11.7)^{2}+(3.952)^{2}}=12.4 Ns
θ=tan^{-1}\frac{3.952}{11.7}=19°
∴\vec{ΔP}=12.4 Ns...
Hello, I am taking physics 12U through correspondence. I am having issues with this problem. I don't know why but I feel like I made a mistake in this. Can you guys check this question and verify my results.
Thanks, very much. :smile:
