Find the final speed of the second car

Reference no: EM13540971

A car moving with an initial speed v collides with a second stationary car that is one-third as massive. After the collision the first car moves in the same direction as before with a speed v/2.

(a) Find the final speed of the second car.

(b) Is this collision elastic or inelastic? inelastic elastic
