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′)

Consider a frictionless track as shown in the figure below. A block of mass m1 = 2.00 kg is released from point (A) from a height of h = 1.15 m. It makes a perfectly inelastic collision at point (B) with a block of mass m2 = 2.00 kg that is initially at rest. After the collision, the block of mass m2 moves to the right and collides with a spring at point ( C . The spring is attached to a wall and has a spring constant of 8.59 kN/m. (a) Calculate the energy loss during the collision. Enter the magnitude. J (b) Calculate the maximum compression of the spring. cm (c) Instead of an inelastic collision, consider a head-on elastic collision at point B. During this specific elastic collision when the masses are equal, m1 transfers its kinetic energy to m2 and as a result, m1 comes to rest. Calculate the maximum compression of the spring. cm

Three carts (1, 2 and 3 from left to right) with masses m1 = 6.5 kg, m2 = 2.6 kg and m3 = 1.5 kg are on a frictionless surface as in the figure below. Cart 1 is initially moving to the right at speed v0 = 3.9 m/s, while carts 2 and 3 are initially at rest. Cart 1 hits carts 2 , and after this first collision, cart 2 (now moving to the right) eventually hits cart 3 . All collisions are perfectly elastic. What is the final speed of cart 3? a. 4.95 m/s b. 6.34 m/s c. 3.53 m/s d. 7.07 m/s e. 1.77 m/s

In this problem we will consider the collision of two cars initially moving at right angles. We assume that after the collision the cars stick together and travel off as a single unit. The collision is therefore completely inelastic. As shown below, two cars collide. Car one has an initial mass and velocity of m1 = 1,140 kg, and v1 = 15.2 m/s. Car two has a mass of m2 = 1,570 kg and an initial velocity of v2 = 22.4 m/s. Find the magnitude and direction of the final two car system's momentum. Figure 2. Two cars collide at a right angle, car one is moving to the left, and car two is moving upward.
