2. Two particles, \(P\) and \(Q\), have masses \(2 m\) and \(3 m\) respectively. They are moving towards each other in opposite directions on a smooth horizontal plane when they collide directly. Immediately before they collide the speed of \(P\) is \(4 u\) and the speed of \(Q\) is \(3 u\). As a result of the collision, \(Q\) has its direction of motion reversed and is moving with speed \(u\).

1. Find the speed of \(P\) immediately after the collision.
2. State whether or not the direction of motion of \(P\) has been reversed by the collision.
3. Find the magnitude of the impulse exerted on \(P\) by \(Q\) in the collision.
