Expert Solution

Step 1 Collision

In an inelastic collision, when two identical masses of which one is moving with velocity $u$ and another one at rest, then after collision they stick together and move in the direction of first mass.

$u_{1} + u_{2} = v_{1} + v_{2}$

where, $u_{1}, u_{2}$ are the initial velocities of cart

$v_{1}, v_{2}$ are the final velocities of cart
