Multiple Choice
A hockey puck of mass m traveling along the x axis at 4.5 m/s hits another identical hockey puck at rest.If after the collision the second puck travels at a speed of 3.5 m/s at an angle of 30° above the x axis, is this an elastic collision?
A) Yes, since momentum is conserved.
B) No, since momentum is not conserved.
C) Yes, since kinetic energy is conserved.
D) No, since kinetic energy is not conserved.
E) Not enough information.
