A neutron combines with a carbon nucleas in an elastic collision. The carbon is at rest and the neutron travels at a speed of 2.6x10^6 m/s. The mass of carbon nucleus is 12 times the mass of neutron. Determine the velocities of the carbon nucleas and the neutron after collision.

A neutron in a nuclear reactor makes an elastic,
head-on collision with the nucleus of a carbon atom initially at
rest.
(a) What fraction of the neutron's kinetic energy is transferred to
the carbon nucleus? (The mass of the carbon nucleus is about 12.0
times the mass of the neutron.)
ANSWER: 0.284
(b) the initial kinetic energy of the neutron is 3.10
10-13 J. Find its final kinetic energy and the kinetic energy of
the carbon nucleus after the collision.

A body of mass 2.1 kg makes an elastic collision with another
body at rest and continues to move in the original direction but
with 1/6 of its original speed. (a) What is the
mass of the other body? (b) What is the speed of
the two-body center of mass if the initial speed of the 2.1 kg body
was 3.1 m/s?

A neon atom (m=20.0u) makes a perfectly elastic collision with
another atom at rest. After the impact, the neon atom travels away
at a 40.0 ? angle from its original direction and the unknown atom
travels away at a -50.0 ? angle.
Part A
What is the mass (in u) of the unknown atom? [Hint: You can use
the law of sines.]

Elastic Collision lab. I'm trying to calculate velocity,
momentum, and kinetic energy in an elastic collision. The data I
have is this. I tried using these numbers to calculate velocity and
momentum but the results show momentum is not conserved as it
should be. Is that just error from measurements or am I missing
something?

The Ballistic Pendulum
1 Was the collision between the ball and the pendulum elastic or
inelastic? Confirm your
conclusion using data from the lab. (show all calculations!)
2 Was kinetic energy conserved during the collision? How do you
know? (show
calculations!) If kinetic energy was not conserved, where was
the energy lost to?

bounced back toward the
launcher. In other words, suppose the blockat the end of the...
