1. Particle A of mass m has initial velocity No. After colliding with particle B of mass 2m initially at rest, the particles follow the paths shown in the sketch. 45° VO B B Initial Final (a) Determine the scattering angle of particle A assuming that the collision is elastic. (b) Determine the scattering angle in the center of mass frame assuming that the collision is elastic. (c) Explain whether the angle 8 increases or decreases if the collision is not elastic, but the scattering angle of particle B remains 45°. Same question for O.
