Part A Playing in the street, a child accidentally tosses a ball (mass m) with a speed of v=18 m/s toward the front of a car (mass M) that is moving directly toward him with a speed of V=20 m/s . Treat this collision as a 1-dimensional elastic collision. After the collision, the ball is moving with speed v′ back toward the child and the car is moving with speed V′ in its original direction.

Part B
When we combine the equation from Part A with the conservation of momentum equation, we can solve for both final speeds. This relationship will involve the masses of the ball and the car, but we can apply a simplifying assumption: the car is so massive compared with the ball that its speed will not change at all as a result of this collision. Translate this sentence into an equation, what is V′ equal to? Now, having made this assumption, it becomes possible to solve the equation from Part A for the final speed of the ball, what is it?

Acommon technique in analysis of scientific data is normalization. the purpose of normalizing data is to eliminate irrelevant constants that can obscure the salient features of the data. the goal of this experiment is to test the hypothesis that the flux of light decreases as the square of the distance from the source. in this case, the absolute value of the voltage measured by the photometer is irrelevant; only the relative value conveys useful information. suppose that in part 2.2.2 of the experiment, students obtain a signal value of 162 mv at a distance of 4 cm and a value of 86 mv at a distance of 5.7 cm. normalize the students' data to the value obtained at 4 cm. (divide the signal value by 162.) then calculate the theoretically expected (normalized) value at 5.7 cm.
