Two identical freight cars roll toward one another, on a level track with negligible friction.One car is moving at 2.3 m/s and the other car at 2.9 m/s. After the collision, both cars are coupled and roll together with what speed? How much kinetic energy islost in this collision?
***I get 0.3 as my velocity but Im not sure how to calculate how much kinetic energy is lost in this collision

A railroad tank car rolls on a track at 3.45 m/s toward two identical coupled tank cars, which are rolling in the same direction as the first, but at a speed of 1.20 m/s. The first reaches the second two and all couple together. The mass of each is 2.10 ✕ 104 kg. (a) What is the speed (in m/s) of the three coupled cars after the first couples with the other two? (Round your answer to at least two...
