    Momentum Physics Problem: Two astronauts throw billiard balls that collide

    Okay this is what I updated. I split the momentum into x and y components. i did 4.2-3.5=3.4cos35 + v2fcosx 0=3.4sin35 + v2f sinx i did v2fsinx/v2fcosx and got tanx = 2.09/1.95 so i did the inverse of tan, got that the angle was about 46.98 degrees. then to calculate for v2f i just plugged in...

    Momentum Physics Problem: Two astronauts throw billiard balls that collide

    Okay, thank you so much for telling me! I just tried to write LaTeX, I clicked preview and nothing happened to the text so I don't believe I'm writing it correct. here is my work though: pi=pf mv1(initial) + mv2(initial) = mv1 (final) + mv2 (final) so substitute the values im given...
