In an elastic collision between two bodies of mass m1 and m2, with m2 initially at rest, mass 1 moves off at angle θ relative to the direction of its initial velocity and mass 2 at angle φ. An exam paper shows the equations below:

m1v1i
0

= m1v1f cosθ + m2v2f sinφ
= m1v1f sinθ + m2v2f cosφ



What error(s) has the student made?


◦
In the first equation, m2v2f sinφ should be m2v2f cosφ.

◦
In the second equation, m2v2f cosφ should be m2v2f sinφ.

◦
In the second equation, the plus sign between the terms on the right should be a minus sign.

◦
All of the errors listed above.

◦
Only errors (a) and (b) above.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
