A neon atom (m = 12 u) makes a perfectly elastic collision
with another atom at rest. After the impact, the neon atom travels
away at 55.6° angle from its original direction and the unknown
atom travels away at a -50.0° angle from that original direction.
What is the mass (in u) of the unknown atom?
please use conservation of momentum in an isolated
system
