00 kg\), \(v_1 = 50.0 m/s\) \(m_2 = 3.00 kg\), \(v_2 = -25.0 m/s\) Plugging in the values: \(v_f = \frac{2.00(50.0) + 3.00(-25.0)}{2.00 + 3.00}\) \(v_f = \frac{100.0 - 75.0}{5.00}\) \(v_f = \frac{25.0}{5.00}\) \(v_f = 5.00 m/s\) Show more…

Blocks A and B are moving toward each other: Block A has a mass of 2.0 kg and a velocity of 50 m/s, while B has a mass of 4.0 kg and a velocity of -25 m/s. They suffer a completely inelastic collision. The kinetic energy dissipated during the collision is:

A block of mass $0.50 \mathrm{~kg}$ is moving with a speed of $2.00 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}$ on a smooth surface. It strikes another mass of $1.00 \mathrm{~kg}$ and then they move together as a single body. The energy loss during the collision is (A) $0.16 \mathrm{~J}$ (B) $1.00 \mathrm{~J}$ (C) $0.67 \mathrm{~J}$ (D) $0.34 \mathrm{~J}$
Two Bodies Collide Two $2.0 \mathrm{~kg}$ bodies, $A$ and $B$, collide. The velocities before the collision are $\vec{v}_{A 1}=(15 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}) \hat{\mathrm{i}}+(30 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}) \hat{\mathrm{j}}$ and $\vec{v}_{B 1}=(-10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}) \hat{\mathrm{i}}+(5.0 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}) \hat{\mathrm{j}}$. After the collision, $\vec{v}_{A 2}=$ $(-5.0 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}) \hat{\mathrm{i}}+(20 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}) \hat{\mathrm{j}}$. (a) What is the final velocity of $B ?$ (b) How much kinetic energy is gained or lost in the collision?
