Question

A 0.16 kg billiard ball was traveling at 3.7 m/s when it collided with another billiard ball of the same mass. The first billiard ball came to a stop as a result of the collision. What was the final velocity of the second ball?

A. 0.0 m/s

B. 0.59 m/s

C. 3.7 m/s

D. 1.1 m/s

Expert Solution

Given data

Mass of ball (m) = 0.16 kg

Initial speed of 1st ball (u1) = 3.7 m/s

Initial speed of 2nd ball (u2) = 0

Final speed of 1st ball (v1) = 0

Let final speed of 2nd ball be v2
