1 Two particles \(P\) and \(Q\), of masses 0.1 kg and 0.4 kg respectively, are free to move on a smooth horizontal plane. Particle \(P\) is projected with speed \(4 \mathrm {~m} \mathrm {~s} ^ { - 1 }\) towards \(Q\) which is stationary. After \(P\) and \(Q\) collide, the speeds of \(P\) and \(Q\) are equal.
Find the two possible values of the speed of \(P\) after the collision.
