Consider two objects of masses mi 8 kg and m2 = 4 kg. m1 is travelling along the negative y-axis at 52 km/hr and strikes the second stationary mass m2, locking the two masses together. (a) What is the velocity of the first mass before the collision? Vmı =<?,?,?> (b) What is the velocity of the second mass before the collision? Vm2 =<?,?,?> (c) The final velocity of the two masses can be calculated using the formula? (d) What is the final velocity of the two masses? Ve =<?,?,?> (e) Choose the correct answer (i) (ii) The final momentum of the system is less than the initial momentum of the system The final momentum of the system is greater than the initial momentum of the system The final momentum of the system is equal to the initial momentum of the system (iii) (f) What is the total initial kinetic energy of the two masses (Ki =?)? (g) What is the total final kinetic energy of the two masses(Kg =?)? = (h) How much of the mechanical energy is lost due to this collision (AEint =?)?
