Two manned satellites approaching one another, at a relative speed of 0.200 m/s, intending to dock. The first has a mass of 5.00 ✕ 103 kg, and the second a mass of 7.50 ✕ 103 kg. a. Calculate the final velocity (after docking) in m/s by using the frame of reference in which the first satellite was originally at rest. (Assume the second satellite moves in the positive direction. Include the sign of the value in your answer.) m/s b. What is the loss of kinetic energy (in J) in this inelastic collision? J c. Repeat both parts by using the frame of reference in which the second satellite was originally at rest. final velocity (m/s) m/sloss of kinetic energy (J) J Explain why the change in velocity is different in the two frames, whereas the change in kinetic energy is the same in both.
We have two spheres (m and M) that are separated by a small distance; m is to the left of M. A sphere of mass m (identical to one of the two initial spheres) is moving towards m at a speed V0. Show that when M is smaller than or equal to m, there will be 2 collisions and calculate the final speeds. Show that when M is larger than m, there will be three collisions and calculate the final velocities.

Calculate the interval ∆s2 between two events with coordinates ( x1 = 50 m, y1 = 0, z1 = 0,t1 = 1 µs) and (x2 = 120 m, y2 = 0, z2 = 0, t2 = 1.2 µs) in an inertial frame S. b) Now transform the coordinates of the events into the S'frame, which is travelling at 0.6calong the x-axis in a positive direction with respect to the frame S. Hence verify that thespacetime interval is invariant.
