A 70.0 kg ice hockey goalie, originally at rest, has a 0.170 kg hockey puck slapped at him at a velocity of 35.5 m/s. Suppose the goalie and the puck have an elastic collision, and the puck is reflected back in the direction from which it came. What would the final velocities 𝑣goalie and 𝑣puck of the goalie and the puck, respectively, be in this case? Assume that the collision is completely elastic.
