The total momentum of the system must be conserved. The momentum conservation gives, mAvi,A+mGvi,G=mAvf,A+mGvf,G Here, mA is the mass of Arlo, vi,A is the velocity of Arlo before the collision, mG is the mass of Greyson, vi,G is the velocity of Greyson before the collision, vf,A is the velocity of Arlo after the collision and vf,G is the velocity of Greyson after the collision. Rearranging the equation, mAvi,A+mGvi,G-mGvf,G=mAvf,Avf,A=vi,A+mGmAvi,G-vf,G=1.09 m/s+17.6 kg14.0 kg1.39 m/s-1.12 m/s=1.43 m/sThe total kinetic energy of the system before the collision is given by, KEinitial=12mAvi,A2+12mGvi,G2=1214.0 kg1.09 m/s2+1217.6 kg1.39 m/s2=25.3 J The total kinetic energy of the system after the collision is given by, KEifinal=12mAvf,A2+12mGvf,G2=1214.0 kg1.43 m/s2+1217.6 kg1.12 m/s2=25.3 J Since the total kinetic energy of the system before collision is equal to the total kinetic energy of the system after the collision, the kinetic energy is conserved. Therefore, the collision is elastic.

Suppose you are navigating a spacecraft far from other objects. The mass of the spacecraft is 3.0 x 104 kg (about 30 tons). The rocket engines are shut off, and you're coasting along with a constant velocity of km you briefly fire side thruster rockets, so that your spacecraft experiences a net force of N for 20 s. The ejected gases have a mass that is small compared to the mass of the spacecraft. You then continue coasting with the rocket engines turned off. Where are you an hour later? (Think about what approximations or simplifying assumptions you made in your analysis. Also think about the choice of system: what are the surroundings that exert external forces on your system?)
