Physics

(A): Consider a head-on, elastic collision between two bodieswhose masses are m and M, with m<0 and M is initially at rest, m will bouncestraight back with its speed unchanged, while M will remain at rest(to an excellent approximation). Use this fact to predict the finalvelocities if M approaches with speed v0 and m isinitially at rest. (use Galilean transformation)

(B): Use the method of problem (A) to predict the finalvelocities if the two masses m and M, with m<0 (relative to lab) andundergo a head-on elastic collision.
