Two ice pucks (one orange and one blue) of equal mass are involved in a perfectly elastic glancing collision as shown in the figure below. The orange puck is initially moving to the right at voi = 7.5 m/s,strikes the initially stationary blue puck, and moves off in a direction that makes an angle of 8=22° with the horizontal axis while the blue puck makes an angle of with this axis as in figure (b). Note that for an elastic collision of two equal masses, the separation angle 8+ = 90.0°. Determine the speed of the orange puck after the collision. Voi Before collision Vi After collision
