Question

2. Consider a particle of mass m1 that moves with velocity V1=Vi towards a second particle of mass m2 that moves with velocity V2=-Vi. After the collision, one new particle of mass m appears, moving with a velocity of modulus u along the horizontal direction (the x-axis). i. Write the conservation equations for momentum and the Center of Energy. ii. Find an expression for the quantities m3 and u in terms of the problem data [m1, m2, V1, V2].
