Two small steel balls A and B have mass 0.6 kg and 0.2 kg respectively. They are moving towards each other in opposite directions on a smooth horizontal table when they collide directly. Immediately before the collision, the speed of A is 8 m/s and the speed of B is2 m/s. Immediately after the collision, the direction of motion of A is unchanged and the speed of B is twice the speed of A. Find (a) The speed of A immediately after the collision, (b) The magnitude of the impulse exerted on B in the collision
