Meriam, Kraige & Bolton β Kinetics of Systems of Particles: Problem 4_16
4/16 Billiard ball A is moving in the y-direction with a velocity of 2 m/s when it strikes ball B of identical size and mass initially at rest. Following the impact, the balls are observed to move in the directions shown. Calculate the velocities \(v_A\) and \(v_B\) which the balls have immediately after the impact. Treat the balls as particles and neglect any friction forces acting on the balls compared with the force of impact.
