A puck m₁ = 0.30 kg is moving with an initial speed of 5.0 m/s at 30 degrees above the x axis. A second puck m₂ = 0.40 kg is moving with an initial speed of 3.0 m/s at 45 degrees below the x axis, see picture below (the picture is not to scale. It is just for reference). The two pucks have an inelastic collision. The 0.30 kg puck moves at 2.0 m/s at 20 degrees above the x axis after the collision. Find the magnitude and direction (measured from the x axis) of the velocity of the 0.40 kg puck after the collision..
