Question

3. Two shuffleboard disks of equal mass, one orange and the other green, are involved in a perfectly elastic glancing collision. The green disk is initially at rest and is struck by the orange disk moving initially to the right at 5.00 m/s as in the figure below (a). After the collision, the orange disk moves in a direction that makes an angle of 37.0o with the horizontal axis while the green disk makes an angle of 53.0o with this axis as in the figure below (b).


Determine i. the speed of each disk after the collision. ii. What kind of collision occurred?
