An object (A) of mass 0.1 kg strikes a second objects (B), of mass0.3 kg that is initially at rest. Mass A has an initial velocity of+ 2 m/s.

A) Suppose that the collision is entirely elastic. Compute and describe the final velocities for the two objects. Suppose that this problem is entirely one-dimensional.

B) Now suppose that the collision is totally inelastic. Again calculate and describe the final state for these objects.

C) For the inelastic collision. Is mechanical energy conserved in this case; if not, accounted for the discrepancy?
