this is a multi step problem but I am just having trouble with this part of the problem. Here are the values that I correctly calculated: mass of particle 1=6 kg initial velocity for particle 1= 185i+138j final velocity for particle 1= -68.89i+-50.67j I am trying to find: What is the change in kinetic energy for particle 1? I understand I have to use KT= 1/2*m*(vf2-vi2) but I keep getting the wrong answer can you please help?
