Two dimensional Collisions
In two dimension, one can use components of momentum to apply
momentum conservation to solve physical problems.

Consider a system of two particle collisions and scatters in
two dimension as shown in the picture. (This is the case at
fixed target accelerator experiments.) The momentum
conservation tells us:
m1 v 1 f  m2 v 2 f  m1 v1i
m1v1ix  m1v1 fx  m2 v2 fx  m1v1 f cos q  m2 v2 f cos f
m1v1iy  0  m1v1 fy  m2 v2 fy  m1v1 f sin q  m2 v2 f sin f
And for the elastic conservation,
the kinetic energy is conserved:

Example 9.9
A 1500kg car traveling east with a speed of 25.0 m/s collides at an interaction with a 2500kg
van traveling north at a speed of 20.0 m/s. After the collision the two cars stuck to each
other, and the wreckage is moving together. Determine the velocity of the wreckage after the
collision, assuming the vehicles underwent a perfectly inelastic collision.
The initial momentum of the two car system before the collision is
p i  m1v1i i  m2v2i j  1500  25.0i  2500  20.0 j
 3.75 104 i  5.0 104 j
The final momentum of the two car system after the perfectly
inelastic collision is


Example 9.10
Proton #1 with a speed 3.50x105 m/s collides elastically with proton #2 initially at
rest. After the collision, proton #1 moves at an angle of 37o to the horizontal axis and
proton #2 deflects at an angle f to the same axis. Find the final speeds of the two
protons and the scattering angle of proton #2, f.

Since both the particles are protons m1=m2=mp.
Using momentum conservation, one obtains

m p v1 f sin q  m p v2 f sin f  0
Canceling mp and put in all known quantities, one obtains

Center of Mass
We’ve been solving physical problems treating objects as sizeless
points with masses, but in realistic situation objects have shapes
with masses distributed throughout the body.
Center of mass of a system is the average position of the system’s mass and
represents the motion of the system as if all the mass is on the point.

exerted on the system?

The total external force exerted on the system of
total mass M causes the center of mass to move at
an acceleration given by a   F / M as if all
the mass of the system is concentrated on the
center of mass.
Consider a massless rod with two balls attached at either end.
The position of the center of mass of this system is

Center of Mass and Center of Gravity
The center of mass of any symmetric object lies on an
axis of symmetry and on any plane of symmetry, if
object’s mass is evenly distributed throughout the body.
How do you think you can
determine the CM of
objects that are not
symmetric?

One can use gravity to locate CM.
symmetry
1. Hang the object by one point and draw a vertical line
following a plum-bob.
2. Hang the object by another point and do the same.
3. The point where the two lines meet is the CM.
Since a rigid object can be considered as collection
of small masses, one can see the total gravitational
force exerted on the object as

The net effect of these small gravitational
forces is equivalent to a single force acting on
a point (Center of Gravity) with mass M.
