Billiard ball A of mass 1.00 kg is given a velocity 7.10 m/s in +x direction as shown in the figure. Ball A strikes ball B of the same mass, which is at rest, such that after the impact they move at angles ΘA = 63.0 ° and ΘB respectively. The velocity of ball A after impact is 4.20 m/s in the direction indicated in the figure. Figure showing a layout of the problem as described in text.
A) What is the total momentum after impact in x-direction?
B) What is the velocity of ball B after impact in x-direction?
C) What is the velocity of ball B after impact in y-direction?
D) What is the momentum of ball B after impact in the direction shown?
