What is the final direction and speed of the probe

Reference no: EM13500233

A space probe in deep space is moving along the x-axis at a speed of v0 when it is hit by a meteor. The mass of the meteor is 0.005 times that of the space probe but the original speed of the meteor is 400 times that of the probe. The original direction of the meteor is perpendicular to the original direction of the probe, and the meteor is deflected by 25° in the forward direction of the probe. The final speed of the meteor is half of its original speed. What is the final direction and speed (in terms of v0) of the probe?
