Two gliders with different masses (m1 and m2) are placed on a frictionless air track and given initial velocities v1i and v2i. They elastically collide, bouncing off each other. (a) Determine the equations for the final velocity of each glider. (b) For m1 = 0.51 kg, m2 = 0.98 kg, v1i=1.5 im/s, and v2i=-2.2 im/s, find v1f and v2f.

Two blocks of masses m1 = 1.95 kg and m2 = 3.90 kg are each released from rest at a height of h = 6.00 m on a frictionless track, as shown in the figure below, and undergo an elastic head-on collision. (Let the positive direction point to the right. Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.) Two blocks are on a curved ramp similar in shape to a half-pipe. There is a flat horizontal surface with opposite...
