The drawing shows a collision between two pucks on an air-hockey table.

The drawing shows a collision between two pucks on an air-hockey table. Puck A has a mass of 0.0120 kg and is moving along the x axis with a velocity of +5.92 m/s. It makes a collision with puck B, which has a mass of 0.0240 kg and is initially at rest. The collision is not head-on. After the collision, the two pucks fly apart with the angles shown in the drawing. Find the speed of (a) puck A and (b) puck B. 65 37 At rest B Before collision After collision (a) Number Units (b) Number Units
