题目中文翻译
两质点 和 的质量分别为 和 。它们在光滑水平面上沿同一直线相向运动,并发生碰撞。
碰撞前一瞬间, 的速率为 , 的速率为 。
碰撞过程中 对 施加的冲量大小为 。
(a) 求碰撞后瞬间 的速率。
(b) 说明碰撞是否使 的运动方向反转。
(c) 求碰撞后瞬间 的速率。
解答
(a)
解法一
思路
展开
取 原运动方向为正方向。碰撞冲量作用于 时向负方向,求出末速度后取绝对值。
答题过程
展开
Take the original direction of motion of as positive. Its impulse is , so
Therefore the speed of is .
(b)
解法一
思路
展开
比较碰撞前后有符号速度,而非只比较速率。
答题过程
展开
The initial velocity of is positive, whereas its final velocity is . Therefore its direction of motion .
(c)
解法一
思路
展开
所受冲量与 所受冲量等大反向。它的初速度为 。
答题过程
展开
The impulse on is . Thus
Hence the speed of is .
解法二
思路

Conserving momentum in the original direction of motion of ,
Therefore
The required speed is .
