A moving cart of mass 3.5 kg crashes into a stationary cart of mass 10.5 kg as shown. The carts are prevented from touching one another during the collision by a pair of neodymium magnets mounted on the ends of the carts and positioned for repulsion. After separating, the more massive cart moves to the right at 1.4 m/s. What are the final speed and direction of motion of the less massive cart? strong magnets Vfi VGi = 0 3.5 kg 10.5 kg Frictionless surface

Two objects collide head-on (see figure below). The first object is moving with an initial speed of v1i = 8.09 m/s and the second object is moving with an initial speed of v2i = 10.00 m/s. Assuming the collision is elastic, m1 = 5.06 kg, and m2 = 6.18 kg, determine the final velocity of each object. (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer. Positive is to the right, and negative is to the left. Due to the nature of this problem, do not use rounded intermediate values in your calculations) v1f = m/s v2f = m/s
