Question:

As per the given figure, a small ball $P$ slides down the quadrant of a circle and hits the other ball $Q$ of equal mass which is initially at rest Neglecting the effect of friction and assume the collision to be elastic, the velocity of ball $Q$ after collision will be :$\left( g =10 \,m / s ^2\right)$a small ball P slides down the quadrant of a circle and hits the other ball Q of equal mass which is initially at rest

Concepts Used:

Center of Mass

The center of mass of a body or system of a particle is defined as a point where the whole of the mass of the body or all the masses of a set of particles appeared to be concentrated.

The formula for the Centre of Mass:

Center of Gravity

The imaginary point through which on an object or a system, the force of Gravity is acted upon is known as the Centre of Gravity of that system. Usually, it is assumed while doing mechanical problems that the gravitational field is uniform which means that the Centre of Gravity and the Centre of Mass is at the same position.
