5. For all elastic collisions as shown in the sketch below the formula cose-(mm)u, holds. where is the opening angle between the paths of the emerging particles 2m, MI 5.2 Before M After 5.1 If in the above collision the masses of the particles are m = m and m-4m and M =3. Show that the opening angle between the paths of the mi and me is 120. (4) If the mass mi has incident kinetic energy E, find the energies of the emerging particles m, and m in terms of E. (6) 5.
