A 3.7-kg object moving to the right with a speed of 4.5 m/s makes a head-on, elastic collision with a 0.8-kg object that is initially at rest. What is the velocity of the 0.8-kg object after the collision? greater than 4.5 m/s less than 4.5 m/s equal to 4.5 m/s zero impossible to say based on the information provided

Consider an inelastic collision between a 1 Kg cart moving to the right at 2 m/s and a 2 Kg cart moving to the left at 4 m/s. What is the speed and direction of the 2 carts after they have stuck together? A mass m1 traveling to the right with a speed v1 makes a glancing collision with a mass m2 initially at rest. After the collision the masses have speeds v1, and v2, and move in directions θ1 and θ2, as shown below. Determine the velocity of m2 after collision (i. e. find v2′)

A 2-kg object, moving at 1 m/s, collides with a 1-kg object that is initially at rest. After the collision, the two objects are found to move away from each other at 1 m/s. Assume they form an isolated system. (a) What are their actual final velocities in the Earth reference frame? (b) What is the velocity of the center of mass of this system? Does it change as a result of the collision?
