A marble of mass 100 g is moving at a speed of 0.40 m s 1 in

Question:

A marble of mass 100 g is moving at a speed of 0.40 m s−1 in the x-direction.

a. Calculate the marble’s momentum. The marble strikes a second, identical marble. Each moves off at an angle of 45° to the x-direction.

b. Use the principle of conservation of momentum to determine the speed of each marble after the collision.

c. Show that kinetic energy is conserved in this collision.
