A 50g marble is moving at 2m/s when it strikes a 20g marble at rest. Immediately after the collision, the 50g ball is moving at 1m/s. Is this an elastic collision

Since the two marbles have different velocities after collision, it can be concluded that the collision is elastic.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of first marble, m₁ = 50g = 0.05 kg

initial velocity of the first marble, u₁ = 2 m/s

mass of second marble, m₂ = 20 g = 0.02 kg

initial velocity of the second marble, u₂ = 0

final velocity of the first marble, v₁ = 1 m/s

Let the final velocity of the second marble, = v₂

Determine the final velocity of the second marble by applying principle of momentum;

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

0.05 x 2 + 0.02 x 0 = 0.05 x 1 + 0.02v₂

0.1 = 0.05 + 0.02v₂

0.02v₂ = 0.1 - 0.05

0.02v₂ = 0.05

v₂ = 0.05 / 0.02

v₂ = 2.5 m/s

During inelastic collision both objects will move at the same velocity after collision.

During elastic collision both objects will move at different velocities after collision.

Since the two marbles have different velocities after collision, it can be concluded that the collision is elastic.

that would be because of both gravity and friction. so     c
