A puck with mass mA = 2.42 [g] moves eastward with speed VA = 1.73 [m/s]. It then collides with another puck of mass mB = 1.25 [g] and is moving northward with a speed vB = 2.26 [m/s]. After the collision,puck A now moves at 48.00 north of east, while puck B moves at 17.00 south of east. What are the speeds of the two pucks after the collision?
