The final speed of the two bumper cars after collision

Reference no: EM1314641

Q. A bumper car with mass m1 = 129 kg is moving to the right with a velocity of v1 = 4.50 m/s. A second bumper car with mass m2 = 86.0 kg is moving to the left with a velocity of v2 = -3.6 m/s. The two cars have an elastic collision. Suppose the surface is frictionless.

What is the final velocity of car 1 in ground (original) reference frame?

What is the final velocity of car 2 in ground (original) reference frame?

In a new (inelastic) collision, same two bumper cars with the same initial velocities now latch together as they collide.
