A red stunt car of mass 800 kg moves at 25 m/s east. A green stunt car of mass 1200 kg moves at 15 m/s west. In a movie stunt, the car’s collide and stick together.
- What is the initial momentum of each car?
- What is the initial total momentum of the system?
- What is the total momentum of the system after the collision?
- What is the velocity of the cars immediately after the collision?
- Is this an elastic, inelastic, or perfectly inelastic collision? How can you know (without calculating kinetic energy)?
- Now find the initial and final kinetic energies of the system. Was your answer to part (e) correct?
