Math Problem Statement

jawabannya

Dua benda m1 = m2 = 2 kg bergerak saling mendekati seperti gambar. v1 = 10 m/s dan v2 = 20 m/s. Jika kedua benda bertumbukan lenting sempurna, maka kecepatan masing-masing benda setelah bertumbukan adalah?

Solution

The problem in the image involves two objects with the same mass m1=m2=2kgm_1 = m_2 = 2 \, \text{kg}, moving towards each other. The velocities before the collision are v1=10m/sv_1 = 10 \, \text{m/s} and v2=20m/sv_2 = 20 \, \text{m/s}, and the collision is described as a perfectly elastic collision ("tumbukan lenting sempurna").

Key points for solving:

  1. Conservation of Momentum: In any collision, momentum is conserved. m1v1+m2v2=m1v1+m2v2m_1 v_1 + m_2 v_2 = m_1 v_1' + m_2 v_2' where v1v_1' and v2v_2' are the velocities after the collision.

  2. Conservation of Kinetic Energy: For a perfectly elastic collision, kinetic energy is also conserved. 12m1v12+12m2v22=12m1v12+12m2v22\frac{1}{2} m_1 v_1^2 + \frac{1}{2} m_2 v_2^2 = \frac{1}{2} m_1 v_1'^2 + \frac{1}{2} m_2 v_2'^2

Since m1=m2m_1 = m_2, and after simplifying the system of equations, we can use the following formula for a perfectly elastic collision between two objects of equal mass: v1=v2v_1' = v_2 v2=v1v_2' = v_1

Applying the Formula:

  • Before the collision: v1=10m/s,v2=20m/sv_1 = 10 \, \text{m/s}, \quad v_2 = 20 \, \text{m/s}
  • After the collision (since m1=m2m_1 = m_2): v1=v2=20m/s,v2=v1=10m/sv_1' = v_2 = 20 \, \text{m/s}, \quad v_2' = v_1 = 10 \, \text{m/s}

Conclusion:

The correct answer is option e:
v1=5m/sv2=10m/sv_1' = 5 \, \text{m/s} \quad v_2' = 10 \, \text{m/s}.
