Randall D. Knight β Impulse and Momentum: Problem 83
A 20 g ball is fired horizontally with speed \( v_0 \) toward a 100 g ball hanging motionless from a 1.0-m-long string. The balls undergo a head-on, perfectly elastic collision, after which the 100 g ball swings out to a maximum angle \( \theta_{max} = 50^\circ \). What was \( v_0 \)?
π Solution Approach
Given: 20 g, 100 g
