In a perfectly elastic collision

Using momentum conservation

Pi = Pf

m1V1i + m2V2i = m1V1f + m2*V2f

given that m1 = 66.4 & m2 = 26.1

V1i = 22.9 cm/sec & v2i = 14.1106

66.4*22.9 + 26.1*14.1106 = 66.4*V1f + 26.1*V2f

1888.84666 = 66.4*V1f + 26.1*V2f

Now other condition of the elastic collisions is that

V1f - V2f = V2i - V1i

V1f - V2f = 14.1106 - 22.9

V1f - V2f = -8.7894?

1888.84666 = 66.4*V1f + 26.1*V2f

Now Solving both equation

V1f = V2f - 8.7894

1888.84666 = 66.4*(V2f - 8.7894?) + 26.1*V2f

V2f*(66.4 + 26.1) = (1888.84666 + 66.4*8.7894)

V2f = (1888.84666 + 66.4*8.7894)/(66.4 + 26.1)

V2f = 26.7293 m/sec

V1f = V2f - 8.7894 = 26.7293 - 8.7894

V1f = 17.9399 cm/sec

Q11

V2f = 26.7293 cm/sec

Q12

In this type of collision:
using moment conservation
Pi = Pf
m1v1 + m2v2 = M*V
where M = m1 + m2
V = (m1v1 + m2v2)/(m1 + m2)

V = (1122*35 + 2062*0)/(1122 + 2062)

V = 12.33 m/sec
