2. A billiard player wishes to pocket the blue ball (see figure) into a corner pocket that is an angle 40° up from S the shooting line. The orange ball is hit at v₁ = 3.2 and collides with the blue ball, which has a speed of v2 = 2.2 m/s towards the corner pocket. Determine the angle 9 that the orange ball deflects with. Both billiard balls have the same mass. ***Note - you cannot assume an elastic collision in this case Cue ball 40⁰ 2.
