In an elastic collision between two bodies of mass m1 and m2, with m2 initially at rest, mass 1 moves off at angle θ relative to the direction of its initial velocity and mass 2 at angle φ. An exam paper shows the equations below:

m1v1i
0

= m1v1f cosθ + m2v2f sinφ
= m1v1f sinθ + m2v2f cosφ



What error(s) has the student made?


◦
In the first equation, m2v2f sinφ should be m2v2f cosφ.

◦
In the second equation, m2v2f cosφ should be m2v2f sinφ.

◦
In the second equation, the plus sign between the terms on the right should be a minus sign.

◦
All of the errors listed above.

◦
Only errors (a) and (b) above.
