Question
(5) Given that glider 2 is initially at rest (v2,i0), are the statements below correct? 1. If the collision is elastic and the mass of glider 2 is much larger than glider 1, then glider 1 will directly bounce back with roughly same speed magnitude after collision 2. If the collision is elastic and the mass of glider 2 is much smaller than glider 1, then glider2 3. If the collision is elastic and both gliders have the same mass, they will actually exchange 4. If the collision is completely inelastic and both gliders have the same mass, then both 5. If the collision is completely inelastic and the mass of glider 2 is much larger than glider 1, will move at almost twice the speed of glider 1 after collision the velocity upon the collision. gliders will stick together and be almost at rest after collision. then both gliders will stick together and be almost at rest after collision.Explanation / Answer
Statement 1,3 and 5 are correct. 2 and 4 are false
For completely inelastic collision both the gliders will move together, for completely elastic they will exchange each other velocity if they are of same mass
