Given:
A smooth sphere A of mass 'm' moving with a constant speed 'v' on the smooth horizontal surface collides elastically with an identical sphere B at rest. After elastic collision speed of sphere A is v/2.
To find:
Speed of sphere B ?
Calculation:
Since the question clearly mentions elastic collision between the two spheres , we can easily apply CONSERVATION OF LINEAR MOMENTUM principle :
Let final velocity of block B be v_(2):
So, final velocity of sphere B is v/2 in the same direction as that of sphere A.
