Three particles A, B, and C with masses mA=2mB=mC are arranged (in that order) in a straight line. Initially, B and C are at rest a distance L apart, and A is projected towards B with speed vA. The particles then undergo elastic head‐on collisions.

SHOW THAT:

a)for any elastic head‐on collision, the relative speed of the two objects after the collision has the same magnitude (but opposite direction) as before the collision: ? vA-vB=-(v_fA-v_fB) ... (f for final/after collision)

b)A and B collide twice and that the time interval between these two collisions is ∆?t=12L/7vA

MY NOTES Three types of charged particles, lets call them A, B, and C, are accelerated and then pass through a velocity selector so that we know they have the same velocity, moving to the right. They then enter a region where the magnetic field is pointing into the paper. Particles A and B are deflected upwards, as shown, while particle C is deflected downwards. The paths of the charges in the field are arcs of circles with the radii...
