Suppose we model a golf club hitting a stationary golf ball as a one-dimensional elastic collision between the moving club and the stationary ball. Suppose the golfer can swing the club so that the 0.200 kg head has a velocity of 48 m/s when it strikes the ball of mass 0.045 kg. Determine the speed of the ball after the collision. If the golfer uses a heavier mass club, one with double the mass, and was able to swing with...
