A15.0 kg penguin waddling east at a velocity of 7.0 m/s collides with a stationary 10.0 kg penguin. after the collision the 15.0 kg penguin is traveling at a velocity of 4.2 m/s 20.0 degrees s of e. a. what is the velocity of the 10.0 kg penguin after collision? b. is this collision elastic or inelastic? if inelastic, what is the energy loss?

Part a:   using momentum conservation we have:   direction x:   (15) (7.0) + 0 = (15) (4.2) cos (-20 °) + (10) v₂ (f) cosθ  (10) v₂ (f) cosθ = (15) (7.0) - (15) (4.2) cos (-20 °) (eq 1)  direction y:   0 + 0 = (15) (4.2) sin (-20 °) + (10) v₂ (f) sinθ  (10) v₂ (f) sinθ = - (15) (4.2) sin (-20 °) (eq 2)  we divide both equations (1) and (2):   left side:   (10) v₂ (f) sinθ / (10) v₂ (f) cosθ = tanθ  right side:   - (15) (4.2) sin (-20 °) / (15) (7.0) - (15) (4.2) cos (-20 °)  clearing the angle we have:   θ = tan⁻¹ [- (15) (4.2) sin (-20 °) / (15) (7.0) - (15) (4.2) cos (-20 °)]  θ = 25 °  we use any of the equations to find the speed.  from (2) we have:   (10) v₂ (f) sinθ = - (15) (4.2) sin (-20 °)  v₂ = - (15) (4.2) sin (-20 °) / (10) sin25 °  answer:   v₂ = 5.1m / s  note:     θ = 25 ° (direction is in the first quadrant, north of east)  part b:   initial kinetic energy:   k (i) = 0.5 (15) (7.0) ²  = 370j (rounded)  final kinetic energy:   ke (f) = 0.5 (15kg) (4.2m / s) ² + 0.5 (10kg) (5.1m / s) ²  = 260j (rounded)  answer:     a difference of 110j, so it was an inelastic collision.

I'll do it rn and then answer

Shania is trying to determine the oldest geologic unit on this map and the reason to why is she unable to do so is that  the units are all the same age.. when there is the same age, there will be no oldest geologic unit and that i cannot be credible.
