momentum is conserved
Mb * V1b = (Mb * V2b) + (Mp * Vp)
Bailey is on the tenth frame of her recent bowling competition and she needs to pick up the last pin for a spare and the first place trophy. She rolls the 7.05-kg ball down the lane and it hits the 1.53-kg pin head on. the ball was moving at 8.24 m/s before the collision. The pin went flying forward at 13.2 m/s. Determine the post collision speed of the ball

initial momentum
= 7.05*8.24 + 0
final momentum
= 7.05 * v + 1.53*13.2
final momentum = initial momentum
= 7.05*8.24 + 0
final momentum
= 7.05 * v + 1.53*13.2
final momentum = initial momentum
