Colliding Spheres Below is the set up you used in your last lab experiment. Incident sphere Target sphere Plumb line Carbon paper A 10 gram incident sphere rolls down the ramp colliding with an identical target sphere. The high end of the ramp is 13 cm above the table, and the height from which the target sphere leaves the table is 1 meter. In this collision situation, predict the distance, d, that the target sphere will travel after collision.
Explanation / Answer
velocity of incident sphere before hitting targer sphere = sqrt(2gH) = sqrt(2x9.8x.13) =1.596 m/s time taken to fall 1m = sqrt(2h/g) = sqrt(2x1/9.8) = 0.452 s
d = 1.596 x .452 = 0.721 m
