Current Attempt in Progress
Your answer is incorrect.
Consider a head-on elastic collision between two objects. Object 1, which has mass m1, is initially in motion, and collides head-on with object 2, which has mass m2, and is initially at rest. Which of the following statements about the collision are true?
vec(p)1,initial=vec(p)1,final+vec(p)2,final
If m1m2, then the final speed of object 2 is less than the initial speed of object 1.
If m2m1, then the final speed of object 1 is greater than the finalspeed of object 2.
|vec(p)1,final||vec(p)1,initial|
If m2m1, then |vec(p)1|>|vec(p)2|
