Physics · Mechanics
Two point-particles having masses m1 and m2 approach each other along mutually perpendicular directions with speeds v1 and v2, respectively. After a perfectly elastic collision, they move away from each other along mutually perpendicular directions with speeds v′1 and v′2, respectively. Assuming the final velocity vectors are also perpendicular to each other, the ratio v′2v′1 is given by:
- 1m12 v1m22 v2✓
- 2m1 v1m2 v2
- 3m12 v2m22 v1
- 4m1 v2m2 v1
Correct answer
m12 v1m22 v2
