(N/A) An oblique collision is a type of collision where the velocities of the colliding bodies are not directed along the line of impact (the common normal at the point of contact).
In a two-dimensional oblique collision between two bodies of equal masses,where one body is initially at rest,the two bodies move at an angle of $90^{\circ}$ (perpendicularly) relative to each other after the collision,provided the collision is perfectly elastic.
