Momentum — practice question

In Diagram 1, a ball X with mass $0.15\text{ kg}$ is moving horizontally at a velocity of $2.1\text{ m/s}$ towards ball Y, which is moving in the opposite direction at $0.4\text{ m/s}$. Diagram 2 gives the velocities of the balls just after the collision. What is the mass of ball Y?

  • A$0.15\text{ kg}$
  • B$0.19\text{ kg}$
  • C$0.35\text{ kg}$
  • D$0.79\text{ kg}$
