A block of mass 1.98 kg is placed on a frictionless floor and initially pushed northward, whereupon it begins sliding with a constant speed of 5.64 m/s. It eventually collides with a second, stationary block, of mass 3.83 kg, head-on, and rebounds back to the south. The collision is 100% elastic. What will be the speeds of the 1.98-kg and 3.83-kg blocks, respectively, after this collision? 1.26 m/s and 2.31 m/s 1.80 m/s and 3.84 m/s 3.84 m/s and 1.80 m/s 2.61 m/s and 2.82 m/s
