Two carts move toward each other on a one-dimensional horizontal frictionless track. Cart 1 has mass Mh = 2.1 kg and
initial velocity V1,i = 1.709 m/s. Cart 2 has mass M, = 3.4 kg and initial velocity V2i = -0.765 m/s. A spring between
them makes the collision between the carts elastic.
After the collision, what is the velocity of cart 2 as viewed by someone in the center of mass reference frame?
= -0.94 m/s
V2f = 0.47 m/s
= 0.94 m/s
= -0.18 m/s

After the collision, what is the velocity of cart 2 as viewed by someone in cart 1?
V2,1 = 1.72 m/s
V21 = 2.47 m/s
V2,1 = 0.94 m/s
V2,1 = 3.17 m/s

A simple pendelum made of a pendelum bob of mass, m1=.0250 kg, and a string of length, l= .720m, is pulled back to an angle of theta = 35 degrees and then released from rest. At the bottom of the swing m1 and m2=.0200 kg collide and stick together. a. What is the speed of m1 immediately before it hits m2? b. What is the speed of m2 immediately after the collision? c. How high above the bottom of the swing do the two masses rise?
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 F21=-15.9e-t/96i+-100sin(2πt/96)j I am trying to find: What is the x displacement for particle 1? I think that I need to use Newtons second law to get an expression for acceleration, and then integrate but I am not getting the right answers.

A mass m1= 3kg slides down slippery ramp, reaching a speed v=9 m/s at the bottom. After reaching the level ground m1 collides with mass m2= 4kg at bottom, sticking together in a perfectly inelastic collision. The combined mass then slides over a floor, finally coming to rest after travelling a horizontal distance x= 6m. a.) What was the height of the ramp, assuming that m1 started from rest? b.) How fast were the combined masses m1 and m2 moving after sticking together?

If the collision is completely elastic, what are the final speeds V1 and V2 of m1 and m2, respectively?

Two blocks of masses m1 = 1.60 kg and m2 = 2.10 kg are placed on a horizontal frictionless surface and a compressed spring of force constant k = 285 N/m is placed between them.
