In a scattering experiment,a particle of mass $2m$ collides with another particle of mass $m$,which is initially at rest. Assuming the collision to be perfectly elastic,the maximum angular deviation $\theta$ of the heavier particle,as shown in the figure,in radians is:

Consider an elastic collision of a particle of mass $m$ moving with velocity $u$ with another particle of the same mass $m$ at rest. After the collision, the particles move at angles $\theta_1$ and $\theta_2$ with respect to the initial direction of motion. What is the sum of the angles $\theta_1 + \theta_2$ in degrees?
