To solve the problem, we will use the principles of conservation of momentum and conservation of kinetic energy, which are applicable in elastic collisions. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Given Data:** - Mass of ball 1 (m1) = 0.1 kg (the ball that is initially moving) - Mass of ball 2 (m2) = unknown - Initial velocity of ball 1 (u1) = V (let's assume its initial speed is V) ...
