A steel ball of mass 0.50 kg, moving with a velocity 2.0 m/s, strikes a second ball of mass 0.30 kg, initially at rest. The collision is a glancing one, causing the first ball to be deflected by an angle of 30°, with a speed of 1.50 m/s. Determine the velocity of the second ball after the collision, giving both its speed and direction

Follow-up Question

The conservation of energy equation used in the answer was:
Conservation of momentum: m1v1 = m1vf1 + m2vf2

I believe the conservation of energy equation is:
m1v1 + m2v2 = m1vf1 + m2vf2

Therefore the answer should be 1.17 m/s.

Am I correct? Can someone check my work please
