A ball of mass m moving with a velocity v undergoes an oblique elastic collision with another ball of the same mass m but at rest. After the collision if the two balls move with the same speeds , the angle between their directions of motion will be:

A particle of mass m is projected from the ground with an initial speed u_0 at an angle alpha with the horizontal. At the highest point of its trajectory, it makes a completely inelastic collision with another identical particle, which was thrown vertically upward from the ground with the same initial speed u_0. The angle that the composite system makes with the horizontal immediately after the collision is
