A toy car having mass m = 1.50 kg collides inelastically with a toy train of mass M = 3.60 kg. Before the collision, the toy train is moving in the positive x-direction with a velocity of Vi = 2.35 m/s and the toy car is also moving in the positive x-direction with a velocity of vi = 4.60 m/s. Immediately after the collision, the toy car is observed moving in the positive x-direction with a velocity of 1.90 m/s. Determine the change ΔKE in the total kinetic energy.
