The following takes place in two dimensions.
A particle of mass collides with another particle of mass . The pre-collision velocities are given below:
The collision preserves the total kinetic energy, and both particles have equal kinetic energy after the collision. Additionally, the velocities of both particles are positive after the collision.
Determine the velocity of the more massive particle after the collision.
