- Two particles, 1 and 2 , each of mass \(m\), are connected by a massless spring, and are on a horizontal frictionless plane, as shown in the figure. Initially, the two particles, with their center of mass at \(x_0\), are oscillating with amplitude \(a\) and angular frequency \(\omega\). Thus, their positions at time \(t\) are given by \(x_1(t)=\left(x_0+d\right)+a \sin \omega t\) and \(x_2(t)=\left(x_0-d\right)-a \sin \omega t\), respectively, where \(d>2 a\). Particle 3 of mass \(m\) moves towards this system with speed \(u_0=a \omega / 2\), and undergoes instantaneous elastic collision with particle 2 , at time \(t_0\). Finally, particles 1 and 2 acquire a center of mass speed \(v_{\mathrm{cm}}\) and oscillate with amplitude \(b\) and the same angular frequency \(\omega\).
