,1. [In this question, i and j are horizontal perpendicular unit vectors.]
A particle A has mass 3 kg and a particle B has mass 2 kg.
DO NOT WRITE IN THIS AREA
The particles are moving on a smooth horizontal plane when they collide directly.
Immediately before the collision, the velocity of A is (3i – j) m s–1 and the velocity of
B is (–6i + 2j) m s–1
2
Immediately after the collision the velocity of A is −2i + j m s–1
3
(a) Find the total kinetic energy of the two particles before the collision.
(3)
(b) Find, in terms of i and j, the impulse exerted on A by B in the collision.
