a. Indicate the direction of the momentum of each ball after collision b. Were the two balls both moving or can one be initially at rest before collision? To answer this, choose sample initial velocities representing both cases c. Solve each situation using the formulas for elastic collision d. Analyze your answer in (b) by comparing your results in (c)
