Detailed Solution

If we resolve the initial velocity along x-and y-axis, then it is clear that uy will remain constant after collision but ux will change. Also, m2>>m1, therefore m1 can be neglected. Hence, 

vx1=-em2m2(ux)1=-e(ux)1=-12×3=-32

∴ Velocity after collision is

v=-32i^+j^

Similarly we can find that

  loss in K.E. =27m8j^ and impulse=-9m2i^
