February 16, 20179 yr Name: 2D Conservation of Momentum Example using Air Hockey DiscsCategory: Momentum and CollisionsDate Added: 2017-05-21Submitter: Flipping Physics A 28.8 g yellow air hockey disc elastically strikes a 26.9 g stationary red air hockey disc. If the velocity of the yellow disc before the collision is 33.6 cm/s in the x direction and after the collision it is 10.7 cm/s at an angle 63.4° S of E, what is the velocity of the red disc after the collision? This is an AP Physics 1 topic. Want Lecture Notes?
