3. Show that the vectors a = 3i+ 4j and b = 4i- 3j are perpendicular. A smooth sphere A of mass
2m moving on a smooth horizontal floor with velocity (10i +5j)ms impinges obliquely on a
smooth stationary sphere B of mass m. At the instant of collision the line joining the centres of the
spheres is parallel to the vectora. Given that the coefficient of restitution between the two spheres
is e and that the direction of motion of sphere A after impact makes an angle a with the line of
centres of the spheres, show that
(a) (4 - 2e) tan a = 3,
