A proton of mass m is at rest when it is suddenly struck head-on by an alpha particle (which consistsof 2 protons and 2 neutrons) moving at speed v. If the collision is perfectly elastic, what speed will the alpha particle have after the collision

3/5 v

Explanation:

The computation of speed will the alpha particle have after the collision is shown below:-

In a perfectly elastic the kinetic energy and collision the momentum are considered.

The velocity of the particles defines the below equation:

As we know that

Here, we consider A is the alpha particle and B is the proton and now by the above values we can solve the equation which is below:-

Therefore the correct answer is

answer: a) y=-8x+5

a) m= -8

b) m= -2

c) m= 7

d) m= 6

that would be because of both gravity and friction. so     c
