Question

A cue ball initially moving at 4.2 m/s strikes a stationary eight ball of the same size and mass. After the collision, the cue ball’s final speed is 1.7 m/s. Find the cue ball’s angle θ with respect to its original line of motion. Consider this to be an elastic collision (ignoring friction and rotational motion). Answer in units of ◦

Step 1

- The initial speed of the cue ball (v1_initial) = 4.2 m/s. - The initial speed of the eight ball (v2_initial) = 0 m/s (stationary). - The final speed of the cue ball (v1_final) = 1.7 m/s. - The final speed of the eight ball (v2_final) is unknown. - Show more…
