A 1.25kg hockey puck (puck A) slides across a frictionless sheet of ice and collides with a puck of unknown mass (puck B) head on. The collision is completely elastic, which means no kinetic enegy is lost in the collision. After the collision, puck A moves in the opposite direction at half of its initial speed. Find the mass of puck B.

(non calculus based physics) Two hockey pucks of equal mass, one blue and one yellow, are involved in a perfectly elastic glancing collision. The yellow puck is initially at rest and is struck by the blue puck, which is moving initially to the right at 6.5 m/s. After the collision, the blue puck moves in a direction that makes an angle of 39° with its initial direction, and the velocity of the yellow puck is perpendicular to that of the...
