Calculate the original speed of the cue ball

Reference no: EM13668089

In a game of pool, the cue ball strikes another ball of the similar mass and initially at rest. After the collision, the cue ball moves at 3.30 m/s along a line making an angle of18.0 degree with its original direction of motion, and the second ball has a speed of 1.90 m/s.

(a) Obtain the angle between the direction of motion of the second ball and the original direction of motion of the cue ball.

(b) Calculate the original speed of the cue ball.
