Conservation of Momentum with a Head-On Collision in a single direction/dimension/axis (Fwd/Bckwd)

m1 = 1 kg

m2 = 2 kg

Initial:

m1 is moving with vi1 [Fwd]] towards m2 which is at rest.

Midst:

m1 collides with m2, now both are in motion.

Final:

m1 moves with new velocity vf1 in the backward direction, m2 moves with new vf2 forwards.

How does the law of conservation of momentum apply and what are the applicable formulas for the conservation of momentum (Pi1 = Pf1 + Pf2 ?)

A bullet is fired toward a block of wood (m1 = 1.17 kg) sitting on a frictionless surface. The bullet has a mass mb = 30 g, and its initial velocity is 320 m/s in the +x-direction. The bullet embeds itself inside the block of wood. Then the block of wood (with bullet) collides with another block of wood (m2 = 1.20 kg). The collision is elastic. The first block moves off at an angle of -45o with respect to...
