Two bodies m2 and m3 of mass 1 kg are initially at rest at the positions x2 = 0 and x3 = 1 m, respectively. At time t = 0, another body M of mass 3 m, and moving in the direction of the X axis with velocity v = 1 m/s, collides elastically with the body located at the origin.
a) What will be the velocities of the bodies after the first collision?
b) What will be the speeds of the 3 bodies for t > 2 s if the second collision is also elastic?

A mass 1.9 kg is initially at rest at the top of a 2meter high ramp. It slides down the frictionless ramp and collides elastically with an unknown mass which is initially at rest. After colliding with the unknown mass, the 1.9 kg mass recoils and achieves a maximum height (altitude) of only 0.2 m going back up the frictionless ramp. (HINT: Solving each part in sequence will guide you to a solution without doing a lot of algebra.) 1.Considering...
