A 5.2 g coin sliding to the right at 20.8 cm/s makes an elastic head-on collision with a 15.6 g coin that is initially at rest. After the collision, the 5.2 g coin moves to the left at 10.4 cm/s. (a) Find the final velocity of the other coin. cm/s (b) Find the amount of kinetic energy transferred to the 15.6 g coin.
