Consider the blocks on the curved ramp as seen in the figure. The blocks have masses m1 = 2.00 kg and m2 = 3.90 kg, and are initially at rest. The blocks are allowed to slide down the ramp and they then undergo a head-on, elastic collision on the flat portion. Determine the heights (in m) to which m1 and m2 rise on the curved portion of the ramp after the collision. Assume the ramp is frictionless, and h = 4.10 m. hm1 = m hm2 = m

Consider the blocks on the curved ramp as seen in the figure. The blocks have masses m 1 = 2.00 k g and m 2 = 3.90 k g , and are initially at rest. The blocks are allowed to slide down the ramp and they then undergo a head-on, elastic collision on the flat portion. Determine the heights (in m ) to which m 1 and m 2 rise on the curved portion of the ramp after the collision. Assume the ramp is frictionless, and h = 4.10 m . (i)
h m 1 = m h m 2 = m
