Imagine two billiard balls on a pool table. Ball A has a mass of 2 kilograms and ball
B has a mass of 3 kilograms. The initial velocity of ball A is 9 meters per second to
the right, and the initial velocity of the ball B is 6 meters per second to the left. The
final velocity of ball A is 9 meters per second to the left, while the final velocity of
ball B is 6 meters per second to the right.

1. Explain what happens to each ball after the collision. Why do you think this
occurs? Which of Newton’s laws does this represent?

This is an example of an elastic collision. The two objects collide and return to their original shapes and move separately. In such a collision, kinetic energy is conserved. I think we can agree that this represents Newton's third law by demonstrating conservation of momentum.

Answer:

Yes, the law of conservation of momentum is satisfied. The total momentum before the collision is 1.5 kg • m/s and the total momentum after the collision is 1.5 kg • m/s. The momentum before and after the collision is the same.
