We smashed carts into each other in elastic (or mostly elastic) collisions. But there are other pieces you can put on the carts that would make them stick together. Imagine we had done that, smashing a cart with mass m1=0.32kg and initial speed v0=0.95m/s into a second cart that is not moving.

a)How much kinetic energy would be lost in the collision if the stationary cart's mass were m2=0.55kg?
