Question

As shown in the figure, a metal ball with mass m2 is initially at rest on a horizontal, frictionless table. A second metal ball with mass m1 moving with a speed 2.00 m/s, collides with m2. Assume m1 moves initially along the +x-axis. After the collision, m1 moves with speed 1.00 m/s at an angle of ? = 50.0° to the positive x-axis.

(Assume m1 = 0.200 kg and m2 = 0.300 kg.)
 
(a)
Determine the speed (in m/s) of the 0.300 kg ball after the collision.
