प्रश्न
Two objects of masses 100 g and 200 g are moving along the same line and direction with velocities of 2 m s−1 and 1 m s−1, respectively. They collide and after the collision, the first object moves at a velocity of 1.67 m s−1. Determine the velocity of the second object.

उत्तर
Mass of one of the objects, m1 = 100 g = 0.1 kg
Mass of the other object, m2 = 200 g = 0.2 kg
Velocity of m1 before collision, v1 = 2 m/s
Velocity of m2 before collision, v2 = 1 m/s
Velocity of m1 after collision, v3 = 1.67 m/s
Velocity of m2 after collision = v4
According to the law of conservation of momentum:-
Total momentum before collision = Total momentum after collision
∴ m1v1 + m2v2 = m1v3 + m2v4
(0.1)2 + (0.2)1 = (0.1)1.67 + (0.2)v4
0.4 = 0.167 + 0.2v4
∴ v4 = 1.165 m/s
Hence, the velocity of the second object becomes 1.165 m/s after the collision.

Suppose a ball of mass m is thrown vertically upward with an initial speed v, its speed decreases continuously till it becomes zero. Thereafter, the ball begins to fall downward and attains the speed v again before striking the ground. It implies that the magnitude of the initial and final momentums of the ball are the same. Yet, it is not an example of conservation of momentum. Explain why?
