Two masses are on a frictionless horizontal surface

Reference no: EM13666074

Two masses are on a frictionless horizontal surface moving by 2 perpendicular directions (m1=m & m2=3m). After the collision the m1 mass stops.

1) What is the velocity of mass m2 after the collision, if before the collision of the masses v1=5m/s and v2=3m/s.

2) How does the direction of the movement of the second mass changes?
