Two blocks slide on a collision course across a frictionless surface, as in the figure. The resulting collision is inelastic. The first block has mass M = 1.40 kg and is initially sliding due north at a speed of V, = 8.75 m/s. The second block has massm = 7.00 x 10-2 kg and is initially sliding at a speed of v, = 13.5 m/s directed at an angle 0 = 29.5° south of east.
