Object 1 with a mass of 4.0 kg, moving at 15 m/s [E], collie with object 2 with a mass of 3.0 kg, initially at rest on a horizontal frictionless surface. The collision is a glancing one, with object 1 moving off at 11 m/s [E 30°N], after the collision. Assume that friction is negligible. Find the velocity of object 2 after the collision.
