Textbook Question

Chapter 14.2, Problem 14.34P

Determine the energy lost as a result of the series of collisions described in Prob. 14.8.

14.8 Two identical cars A and B are at rest on a loading dock with brakes released. Car C, of a slightly different style but of the same weight, has been pushed by dockworkers and hits car B with a velocity of 1.5 m/s. Knowing that the coefficient of restitution is 0.8 between B and C, and it is 0.5 between A and B, determine the velocity of each car after all collisions have taken place.
