A mass m(1) moves with a great velocity....

A mass `m_(1)` moves with a great velocity. It strikes another mass `m_(2)` at rest in head-on collision. It comes back along its path with low speed after collision. Then find out whether `m_(1)ltm _(2)` or `m_(1)gtm_(2)`.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we will analyze the situation using the principles of conservation of momentum and the concept of head-on collisions. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Initial Conditions**: - Mass \( m_1 \) is moving with an initial velocity \( u \). - Mass \( m_2 \) is at rest, so its initial velocity is \( 0 \). ...
