Determine the speeds of the nuclei

Reference no: EM13681966

An atomic nucleus of mass m1 = m is moving (to the right) at 400 meter per second toward another nucleus of mass m2 = 2m moving (to the left) at -150 meter per second. They have a head-on collision. Determine the speeds of the nuclei (and directions) after a perfectly elastic collision. Consider to the right to be positive.
