5 You have two objects with the same mass and they are going to collide with respect to each other. Estimate the ratio between the total kinetic energy associated with the two objects before and after the collision. Assume that the collision was a perfectly inelastic collision and that one of the two objects was moving with a certain velocity and the other was at rest before the collision.

One object is at rest, and another is moving. The two collide in a one-dimensional, completely inelastic collision. In other words, they stick together after the collision and move off with a common velocity. Momentum is conserved. The speed of the object that is moving initially is 30 m/s. The masses of the two objects are 3.0 and 7.6 kg. Determine the final speed of the two-object system after the collision for the case (a) when the large-mass object is...
