QUESTION:

1. A 2 kg toy car with a velocity of 5 m/s collides elastically with a


second toy car that has a velocity of -2 m/s. After the collision, the 2
kg toy car has a velocity of 3 m/s and the second car has a velocity of
2 m/s. Using the conservation of momentum, what is the mass of the
second car?
2. A billiard ball moving at 4.0 m/s strikes a pair of billiard balls at rest.
One of the balls moves off at 2.0 m/s in a direction 60 degrees from the
line of motion of the first ball and the other moves off at 3.0 m/s in a
direction 30 degrees from the line of the first ball on the other side.
What is the velocity of the first ball after the collision?
