Consider three scenarios for a one-dimensional elastic collision in which a “bullet” is fi red at a stationary target. For each scenario, determine the final velocities of both the bullet, and the target, in terms of the bullet’s initial velocity, Assume both the bullet and target are on a horizontal surface for which friction is negligible. Case (a): Both the bullet and target are bowling balls; Case (b): The target is one of the bowling balls, but the bullet is a Styrofoam ball of the same diameter; Case (c): Now make the Styrofoam ball the target and the bowling ball the bullet; Compare parts (b) and (c) to the following extremes: (d) when the target is the Earth and the bullet is a tennis ball and (e) when the target is a frozen pea and the bullet is a truck’s windshield.
