A blue puck with a mass of 0.0450 kg, sliding with a speed of 0.180 m/s on a frictionless, horizontal air table, makes a perfectly elastic, head-on collision with a red puck with mass m, initially at rest. After the collision, the velocity of the blue puck is 0.020 m/s in the same direction as its initial velocity.
