... it’s more or less obvious that the two bodies just trade velocities. Setting m1=m 2 in the second solution, we indeed find w1=v2. Second, suppose that one of the bodies, say number 2, had zero velocity and were very massive. Then it’s as though the first body were hitting a brick wall. It would just ...
