    Calculate Angle of Deflection for Curling Stone Collision

    Thanks! x dir: 0 = mass(a)v2(a) + m(b)v2(b) because of the wording of the question, i made the assumption that they had the same masses, and thus the masses were irrelevant, so: 0 = v2(a) + v2(b) 0 = v2(a)cosx - 1.5cos25 v2(a)cosx = 1.5cos25 y-dir: same setup here, which ends up with...

    Calculate Angle of Deflection for Curling Stone Collision

    Homework Statement A curling stone thrown takes 4.8 s to travel 60 m. The stone collides with another stone. The collision is a glancing one. If the second stone is deflected 25° and travels 1.5 m/s, calculate the angle of deflection of the first stone after collision. Omit any effects due...
