Expert Answer
Let,
Mass of ball a = Ma
Mass of ball b = Mb
Velosity of ball a = Va
Velosity of ball b = Vb
Given that,
Ma = 2 Mb
Va = Vb/2
Kinetic energy of ball a Ka = 1/2 x Ma x Va2
Kinetic energy of ball b Kb = 1/2 x Mb x Vb2
Ka = 1/2 x Ma x Va2
=1/2 x (2 Mb) x (Vb/2)2
= Mb x 1/4 x Vb2
= 1/2 (1/2 x Mb x Vb2)
= 1/2 Kb
Ka /Kb = 1/2
Hence the ratio of kinetic energies of ball a and ball b is = 1/2
