Ball A, with a mass of 20 kg, is moving to the right at 20 m/s. At what velocity should Ball B, with a mass of 40 kg, move so that they both come to a standstill upon collision? How do I solve this?...
So how do I lay this last problem out? Ball A, with a mass of 10kg, is moving to the right at 20 m/s. Ball B is moving to the left at 20 m/s. Upon collision, Ball B comes to a standstill, and Ball A...

I think this is more philosophy but apologies for putting here as cannot find the philosophy category. Quote from agent smith in the movie, the matrix “I'd like to share a revelation I've had during...
Ive asked before on here (havnt searched but know that I have...) about the nature of consciousness and why we have it at all. The general scientific consensus seems to be that we don't know. I...
