A cue ball traveling at 5.67 m/s makes a glancing, elastic
collision with a target ball of equal mass that is initially at
rest. The cue ball is deflected so that it makes an angle of 30.0°
with its original direction of travel.
(a) Find the angle between the velocity vectors of the two balls
after the collision.
°
(b) Find the speed of each ball after the collision.
cue ball | m/s |
target ball | m/ |
