Physics

A white billiard ball with mass mw = 1.54 kg ismoving directly to the right with a speed of v = 3.31 m/s andcollides elastically with a black billiard ball with the same massmb = 1.54 kg that is initially at rest. The two collideelastically and the white ball ends up moving at an angle above thehorizontal of θw = 60° and the black ball ends up movingat an angle below the horizontal of θb = 30°.

1)What is the final speed of the white ball?

2)What is the final speed of the black ball?

3)What is the magnitude of the final total momentum of thesystem? (kg-m/s )

4)What is the final total energy of the system?
