Perpendicular 62844
A body with a mass of 4 kg hits an obstacle at a speed of 10 m/s. After the collision, the body continued to move at a speed of 6 m/s, while the direction of this speed was perpendicular to the direction of the speed before the collision. Find:
a) change in the magnitude of the velocity and momentum of the body
b) the magnitude of the change in velocity and momentum of the body.
a) change in the magnitude of the velocity and momentum of the body
b) the magnitude of the change in velocity and momentum of the body.
