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.
