Question

The option b) is incorrect, what's the correct option?

Question 8 1 points Saved Two objects 1 and 2 with masscs m1 and m2 scspectively move uch that they undergo direct centra impact F1-2s the force particle 1 exerts an 2 (called the action force) and F nitial to final values impact as showa in the figure 8.1 of your lab manual. v and v2i are thcir initial velocities and vifand v2f are their final velocitics after the final velocities after th alAr to the change the velocities of the particles from 2-1 is the force particle 2 exerts on 1 1thoatral (called the reaction farce). The two forces only act for short t Suppose m1 initially moves from left to right and m2 initialy moves Irom right to lelt, but all move wilh a common velocty in the direction of m after colision, how would you modity the principle af conservation of linear momentum to rellect the direction of arrows is positive this chenge? Assume motion in

Explanation / Answer

Applying momentum conservation,

pi = pf

m1v1f + m2 (-v2i) = - (m1 + m2) v

m1 v1f - m2 v2i = - (m1 + m2)v

Ans(d)
