Two frictionless carts collide and stick together in a perfectly inelastic collision, due to a magnetic or mechanical coupling, on a one-dimensional track. Cart 1 has mass 200 grams and an initial velocity of 2 m/s. Cart 2 has mass 900 g, and is initially stationary. What is the velocity of the two carts together after the collision?

Perfectly Inelastic Collisions: two carts sticking together. This question is not a prediction and will be graded based on completeness and accuracy. Following the rules in the Introduction section, draw a ‘before collision’ picture, and an ‘after collision’ picture. Label the lighter frictionless cart m1, and the heavier cart m2. Your picture must include a reference frame, mass labels, an arrow and label for the speed vector of each cart before the collision, and an arrow and label for the...

Consider a collision between two carts, one of mass mA= 5 kg and the otherof mass mB= 7 kg, on a frictionless track. (A). Find the final velocity of Cart A, if both objects are initially moving in opposite directions toward each other at 12 m/s, and Cart B completely stops due to the collision. (B). Is this an elastic or inelastic collision? Why?

Two carts are on an air-track where friction is negligible. The Incident Cart is moving at an initial velocity of 0.25080m/s, the target cart is at rest. The Incident cart has a mass of 995.8 g and the target cart has a mass of 490.3 g. The carts stick together, the final velocity after collision is 0.077302 m/s. The collision is considered inelastic. a) What is the Initial Momentum of the carts? b) What is the Final Momentum of the...
