Elastic Collisions: A block of mass m = 3.6 kg, moving on a frictionless surface with a speed vi = 9.3 m/s, makes a sudden perfectly elastic collision with a stationary block of mass M, as shown in the figure. Just after the collision, the 3.6-kg block recoils with a speed of vf = 2.7 m/s. What is the speed V of the other block?

A. 6.6 m/s B. 8.0 m/s C. 9.3 m/s D. 10.7 m/s E. 12.0 m/s
