2. Block "P" of mass Mp slides along an x-axis on a frictionless floor with initial speed Vp, 4 m/s. Then it undergoes a one-dimensional collision with stationary block "S" of mass Ms = 0.5 Mp. Next, block "S" undergoes a one dimensional collision with stationary block "U" of mass Mu= 0.5 Ms. Assume that kinetic energy is conserved in each collision. P where P S 2A (10 points) Calculate the final velocity of block "P". 2B (10 points) Calculate the final velocity of block "S". 2C (10 points) Calculate the final velocity of block "U". Calculate the ratio 2C (5 points) PP, f / Pp,i Calculate the ratio Ps,f / Pp,i Calculate the ratio Pu, f / PP,i stands for the magnitude of the linear momentum, i, f stand for "initial" and "final" respectively.
