3. A 19.0 kg curling stone is travelling at 3.0 m/s [N] along the smooth ice when it hits an opponent's stone that is at rest. (Both stones have the same mass.) The opponent's stone rolls off at a velocity of 1.8 m/s [N 22° W]. Determine the percentage of kinetic energy lost during the collision and comment on how close this collision is to being elastic.
