JEE MainPhysics
A small ball of mass 1 kg strikes a wedge of mass 4kg
horizontally with a velocity of 10 m/s. Friction is absent everywhere
and collision is elastic. Select the correct answers
Show answer and solution
Since impulse acts along common normal the linear momentum of the
ball along common normal will change. There is no impulse along common
tangent therefore linear momentum of the ballwill not change during the
collision.
TOPIC: Collision
SUB TOPIC:Elastic collision
LEVEL:Moderate
