Question

Two hydrogen molecules (H2H2 ) in the Sun’s gases are moving in opposite directions with the same speed, as shown in the figure, when they collide and bounce off one another. Each molecule has a mass of 3.3×10−27kg3.3×10−27kg and a speed before the collision of 8.5×103m/s8.5×103m/s. What are the magnitudes of the momentum and kinetic energy of the two-molecule system after the collision?
