8 Linear Momentum and Collisions
... Two identical billiard balls strike a rigid wall with the same speed, and are reflected without any change of speed. The first ball strikes perpendicular to the wall. The second ball strikes the wall at an angle of 30º from the perpendicular, and bounces off at an angle of 30º from perpendicular to ...

... approaches for doing this. In fact, we have just used one in the previous examples of a particle in a three-dimensional box. The reader may verify this as an exercise, noting that the only difference is a factor of two that accounts for spin degeneracy. In this section, we will demonstrate two common ...

... amplitude and phase of the displacement, see Fig. 1d. Applications include generation of arbitrary superpositions of vacuum and a single [45–47] or multiple photons [48, 49] and kitten state superpositions [50]. Complex quantum states can alternatively be created by a different probabilistic hybrid ...

... If X is measured so well that we can distinguish the different Xi from one another, then the neutrino must be observed in the corresponding state i. If the neutrino is observed in a flavor state, the proportions of the 3 possible flavors are just squares of the MNS matrix elements, independent of t ...

... b) The behavior of solids, liquids and gases is different under the action of deforming forces. 4. When the deforming forces are withdrawn, the body may regain its original shape and dimension. This is because of the restoring forces (internal forces) acting within the body, which oppose changes in ...

Kinematics Problems
... speed is a scalar quantity. This means that it has only magnitude, and no direction. Speed refers to “how fast an object is moving” and can be thought of as the rate at which an object covers distance. Velocity, on the other hand, is a vector quantity (has both magnitude and direction) and can be th ...
