Answer: Consider the accompanying diagram. Ball A is

Chapter 9, Problem 9.18

(choose chapter or problem)

Consider the accompanying diagram. Ball A is allowed to fall and strike ball B. Assume that all of ball As energy is transferred to ball B at point I and that there is no loss of energy to other sources. Calculate the kinetic energy and the potential energy of ball B at point II. For a falling object, the potential energy is given by PE 5 mgz, where m is the mass in kilograms, g is the gravitational constant (9.81 m/s2), and z is the distance in meters. B 4.00 kg I II 10.0 m 3.00 m A 2.00 kg
