Question

Two small carts are set up on a horizontal track. Cart A (mass 0.7 kg) sits at rest. Cart B (mass 1.3 kg) moves to the right with a speed of 5 m/s, colliding with cart A. If the collision is perfectly elastic, what is the speed of cart A after the collision? If the collision is perfectly elastic, what's the speed of cart B after the collision? If the collision is perfectly inelastic, what is the speed of cart A after the collision? If the collision is perfectly inelastic, what is the speed of cart B after the collision? If cart A's speed after the collision is 4.55 m/s instead, what kind of collision was it? If cart A's speed after the collision is 4.55 m/s instead, what is the speed of cart B after the collision?
