Question
A billiard ball moving horizontally, labeled 1, strikes another billiard ball at rest, labeled 2. Before impact, ball 1 was moving at a speed of 2.55 m/s, and after impact it is moving at 0.25 m/s at 45° counterclockwise from the direction of the initial velocity. If the two balls have equal masses of 160 g, what is the velocity of ball 2 after the impact? (Assume ball 1 initially moves along the +x-axis.)
A. magnitude in m/s
B. direction in degrees counterclockwise from the x-axis.

A moving billiard ball hits an identical (except for color) stationary ball. After the collision, the orange ball always goes off in the positive x-direction. The final speeds are v and V. Calculate the angle θ that the green ball goes off in. (θ should be positive.)
