Question

B.)Calculate the change in the total kinetic energy of the system that occurs during the collision. On a frictionless, horizontal air table, puck A (with mass 0.150 kg) is moving toward puck B (with mass 0.350kg ), which is initially at rest. After the collision, puck A has a velocity of 0.130 m/s to the left, and puck B has a velocity of 0.610 m/sto the right. What was the speed of puck A before the collision? Calculate the change in the total kinetic energy of the system that occurs during the collision.

Explanation / Answer

a.1.293 m/s towards right

b.0.059 J
