Particle Collision

Particle Collision#

A particle of mass 2 \(kg\) is travelling with velocity 4 \(\frac{m}{s}\hat{\imath}\) when it collides with another particle of mass 3 \(kg\) travelling with velocity 8 \(\frac{m}{s}\hat{\jmath}\).

Part 1#

The total initial momentum of this system is:

Answer Section#

  • 8 \(kg\) \(\dfrac{m}{s}\hat{\imath}\) + 24 \(kg\) \(\dfrac{m}{s}\hat{\jmath}\)

  • 24 \(kg\) \(\dfrac{m}{s}\hat{\imath}\)

  • 24 \(kg\) \(\dfrac{m}{s}\hat{\jmath}\)

  • 24 \(kg\) \(\dfrac{m}{s}\hat{\imath}\) + 8 \(kg\) \(\dfrac{m}{s}\hat{\jmath}\)

  • 8 \(kg\) \(\dfrac{m}{s}\hat{\jmath}\)

  • 8 \(kg\) \(\dfrac{m}{s}\hat{\imath}\)
