In the railroad freight yard, an empty freight car of mass m rolls along a straight level track at 1.20 m/s and collides with an initially stationary, fully loaded boxcar of mass 5.80m. The two cars couple together on collision. a.)What is the speed of the two cars after the collision? b.)Suppose instead that the two cars are at rest after the collision. With what speed was the loaded boxcar moving before the collision if the empty one was moving at 1.20 m/s?

a block with a mass of 0.5 kg is released from rest on a frictionless track at a distance 2.5m above the top of the table. it then collides elastically with an object having mass m2=1.0kg that is initially at rest on the table as shown in the figure. the table is h2=2.oo m . a)How far away from the bottom of the table do the objects land ? Hints : determine the velocities just after the collision . how high does object 1 travel back up the track. b) suppose the collision is inelastic , where does combined object land please see attached image
A mass m1= 3kg slides down slippery ramp, reaching a speed v=9 m/s at the bottom. After reaching the level ground m1 collides with mass m2= 4kg at bottom, sticking together in a perfectly inelastic collision.

How fast were the combined masses m1 and m2 moving after sticking together?
