Hi,
I googled 2d elastic collisions to see if I could find a problem where two objects are approaching each other from different directions before collision and then moving away from each other at different directions after collision, but I noticed that all the problems I've found have 1 of two scenarios:
Approaching each other in a linear fashion before collision and then moving away from each other after collision at different angles.
Or approaching each other from different directions/angles before collision and then both objects move in the same direction after collision in an inelastic way.
So how come I haven't noticed any problems where each object has different angles/directions both before and after collision?
