The collapsed answer of Penchalreddy Badepalli is correct. The composition of two reflections via two mirror making an angle \alpha is equivalent to a single rotation by an angle 2\alpha, hence 2 * 60 deg = 120 deg. And turns is independent of the absolute orientation of the two mirrors in space and/or the direction of incidence of the incoming ray.

One could use elementary geometry to prove this (if you presume the direction of incidence is irrelevant imagine hitting the first mirror at 90 deg, then going retro right back along the normal to the first mirror, and follow the directions).

A 2.00-kg object traveling east at 20.0 m/s collides with a 3.00-kg object traveling west at 10.0 m/s.

Momentum = mass x velocity

Before collision
Momentum 1 = 2 kg x 20 m /s = 40 kg x m/s
Momentum 2 = 3 kg x -10m/s = -30 kg x m/s

After collision
Momentum 1 = 2 kg x -5 m/s = -10 m/s
Momentum 2 = 3 kg x V2 = 3V2

Total momentum before = total momentum after
40 + -30 = -10 + 3V2
V2 = <span>6.67 m/s

Total kinetic energy before
</span><span>= (1/2) [ 2 kg * 20 m/s * 2 + 3 kg * ( -10 m/s) *2 ]
= 550 J
</span>
<span>Total kinetic energy after
</span>= (1/2) [ 2 kg * ( - 5 m/s) * 2 + 3 kg * 6.67 m/s *2 ]
= 91.73 J

Total kinetic energy lost during collision
=<span>550 J - 91.73 J
= 458.27 J</span>
