Question

Spheres A (mass 0.020 kg), B (mass 0.030 kg), and C (mass
0.050 kg2 are approaching the origin as they slide on a frictionless air
table. The initial velocities of A and B are given in Fig. . All three
spheres arrive at the origin at the same time and stick together. (a) What
must the x- and y-components of the initial velocity of C be if all three
objects are to end up moving at 0.50 m/s in the +x-direction after the collision?
(b) If C has the velocity found in part (a), what is the change in the
kinetic energy of the system of three spheres as a result of the collision?
