Two particles collide obliquely in the manner shown below. Both particles are of mass m. Particle 1 moves with a velocity vo before collision and particle 2 is at rest initially. The coefficient of restitution is e. Let the x-axis be the line of impact and the y-axis represent the plane of contact. Let the velocity components of the particle 1 after impact be vx and vy and those of particle 2 after impact be v2x and V2y. a) Determine V1x, Vy, V2x and V2y in terms of vo, 0, e and m. b) Derive an expression of the angle a at which particle 1 moves after impact. The angle a is shown below. c) If 030, what value of e will result in a = 60? (Plane of contact). Y 1 2 m m a (line of impact) Two particles collide obliquely in the manner shown below.
