Two balls of masses m and 2m moving in opposite directions collide head on elastically with velocities `v` and `2v`. Find their velocities after collision.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem of two balls of masses \( m \) and \( 2m \) colliding elastically with initial velocities \( v \) and \( 2v \) in opposite directions, we will use the principles of conservation of momentum and the properties of elastic collisions. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify Initial Conditions:** - Mass of first ball, \( m_1 = m \) with initial velocity \( u_1 = v \) (moving to the right). - Mass of second ball, \( m_2 = 2m \) with initial velocity \( u_2 = -2v \) (moving to the left). ...
