In an intense game of Bubble Soccer, a 75 kg player running to the right at 3 m/s collides elastically (bouncy) with an 85 kg player who was running to the left at 2 m/s. After the collision, the 75 kg player bounces back at -2.3 m/s. SKETCH the collision diagram to represent before-during-after this event. Use RED for the 75 kg player and BLUE for the 85 kg player.
Determine the velocity (both speed and direction) of the 85 kg player after the collision.
How does the CHANGE in momentum of the 75 kg player compare to the CHANGE in momentum of the 85 kg player?
How does the size of the force ON the 75 kg player (by the 85 kg player) compare to the size of the force ON the 85 kg player (by the 75 kg player)?
