2[mucos ((α/2))]=(2m)((u/2))  ⇒  cos ((α/2))=(1/2)    ⇒  α = 120° .
$$\mathrm{2}\left[{mu}\mathrm{cos}\:\left(\frac{\alpha}{\mathrm{2}}\right)\right]=\left(\mathrm{2}{m}\right)\left(\frac{{u}}{\mathrm{2}}\right) \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:\:\mathrm{cos}\:\left(\frac{\alpha}{\mathrm{2}}\right)=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}\:\:\:\:\Rightarrow\:\:\alpha\:=\:\mathrm{120}°\:. \\ $$

But why after collision particles will stick together? Because components of velocities normal to Line of Impact will remain unchanged.

after perfectly inelastic collision  particles stick together.  e=0     ⇒   (v_(separation) /v_(approach) )=0  ⇒   v_(separation) =v_1 −v_2 =0  .
$${after}\:{perfectly}\:{inelastic}\:{collision} \\ $$$${particles}\:{stick}\:{together}. \\ $$$${e}=\mathrm{0}\:\:\:\:\:\Rightarrow\:\:\:\frac{{v}_{{separation}} }{{v}_{{approach}} }=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:\:\:{v}_{{separation}} ={v}_{\mathrm{1}} −{v}_{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{0}\:\:. \\ $$

But isn't that only in 1D and not in 2D?

in  3D  as well.
$${in}\:\:\mathrm{3}{D}\:\:{as}\:{well}. \\ $$
