Question

Need help with this one.

A 0.300 kg puck, initially at rest on a horizontal, frictionless surface, is struck by a 0.200 kg puck moving initially along the x axis with a speed of 2.00 m/s. After the collision, the 0.200 kg puck has a speed of 1.00 m/s at an angle of theta = 53.0 degree to the positive x axis (Fig. 8.11). (a) Determine the speed of the 0.300 kg puck after the collision. Your response differs significantly from the correct answer. Rework your solution from the beginning and check each step carefully. (b) Find the fraction of kinetic energy lost in the collision. is within 10% of the correct value. This may be due to round off error, or you could have a mistake in your calculation. Carry out all intermediate results to at least four-digit accuracy to minimize round off error.
