Suppose two spheres approach each other at 1 m/s from opposite directions. Their total momentum is zero. After the collision, they both zoom off at 1m/s in opposite directions.
What is their momentum? What do you know about the mass of the two spheres?
Their momentum is zero and I know nothing about the mass!
ReplyDeleteWell, we can't figure it out because the mass is not given. To find momentum, you need mass and velocity.
ReplyDeleteBen is right
DeleteBoth spheres momentum is probably about 1m/s. Both spheres have the same mass because if they didn't then the sphere with the greater mass would push the object with less mass in it's own direction.
ReplyDeleteBut we can't know sure what the momentum is because the example only gives speed not velocity.
DeleteThe momentum stays at zero. Due to the law of conversion of momentum says that the total momentum when two object collide stays the same.
DeleteWhat Ben said
ReplyDeleteWhat the heck idk I don't understand this can you teach us please Mr. Ruby?
ReplyDeleteNO MASS
Deletemomentum is zero
ReplyDeletethe momentum is because the example only gives speed not velocity.
ReplyDeleteI don't know.
ReplyDeleteWe cant figure it out without mass.
ReplyDeleteWe can't figure it out.
ReplyDeleteI don't know.
ReplyDeleteAs Ben had said you can't figure it out cause the mass is not given. You need mass and velocity to find momentum.
ReplyDeleteSorry, their momentum is zero because the law of conservation of momentum says that the total momentum of objects that collide with each other the momentum does not change. So it would be zero as the blog had said. And the mass of the two spheres are the same.
Deletewiithout mass
ReplyDeleteWe need the mass to solve it.
ReplyDeleteWell, we can't figure it out because the mass is not given. To find momentum, you need mass and velocity.
ReplyDeleteYou copied ben please post your own.
DeleteYeah Ben please post your own.
DeleteTHERES NO MASS MR RUBY
ReplyDeleteOWEN: Zero
ReplyDeleteNo mass?
ReplyDeleteYou can't figure it out because the mass isn't given. You need mass and velocity to figure out momentum.
ReplyDeleteAW MEH GAWD SPHERE CILLISIN IT GUUTA BEH NER MASE
ReplyDelete(oh my god sphere collision it's gotta be no mass)
There is no mass so we can't find the momentum.
ReplyDeleteno mass
ReplyDeleteSince everyone else is saying this, we need the mass or something I'm not really sure.
ReplyDeleteThere is no mass so we can's find the momentum.
ReplyDeleteTheres no mass in the equation.
ReplyDeleteNo mass and no momentum
ReplyDeleteThere is no mass
ReplyDeleteYOU COPIED SOMEONE AND PUT IT INTO YOUR OWN WORDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Deleteno mass
ReplyDeleteqwertyuiop
ReplyDeleteyou can not tell the mass

ReplyDeleteNo mass and no momentum
ReplyDeleteMass is equal between the two spheres.
ReplyDeleteThe mass is the same, and the momentum is 0.
ReplyDeleteThe mass is the same and no momentum.
ReplyDeleteThe mass would be the same with no momentum.
ReplyDeleteZero
ReplyDeleteThe mass is the same without momentum
ReplyDeleteThe mass would be the same without any amount of momentum.
ReplyDeleteThe spheres have the same mass, and the momentum is zero
ReplyDeleteTheir mass is the same because they both hit each other and go the same distance and same speed
ReplyDeleteThe mass is the same, and the momentum is 0.
ReplyDeleteIt's 0.
ReplyDelete0
ReplyDeleteits 0
ReplyDeleteis nothingness a kind of matter
