A titanium sphere with a mass of 474 g travelling with a velocity of 5.4 m/s overtakes a steel sphere with a mass of 6.72 g traveling at the same direction. The two sphere collides elastically and the titanium sphere slows to 0.5 m/s in the same direction after the collision. WHat was the initial velocity of the steel sphere before the collision?
