Two identical pucks are on an air table. Puck A has an initialvelocity of 2.3 m/s in the positivex-direction. Puck B is at rest. Puck A collides elastically with puck B and A moves off at 1.0 m/s at an angle of +60° above thex-axis. What is the speed and direction of puck B after the collision? (Let angles above the +x-axis to be positive and below to be negative.)
magnitude ___ m/s
direction ___ degrees
