Hi, so I am given a situation, and I am supposed to answer this two part question. So here is the situation
Two Carts, going towards each other to a collision (ELASTIC COLLISION)
Car 1 information
m1= unknown (mass of car)
initial velocity: 30 cm/s (no need to convert to m/s)
final velocity: 0
Car 2 information:
m2 = 150g
initial velocity: -30 cm/s (negative because it is a vector, going towards the left)
final velocity: unknown
First part asks to find a general equation for m1 using the equation to find the final velocity for the first car: equation below
v1f = (m1 - m2)*v1i/M + 2*m2*v2i/M (Capital M means total mass, m1+m2)
Second part, what value for m1 will make sure that the final velocity for the first car is zero.
Step by step tutorial for both would be great. Thanks so much.

There are two carts colliding in elastic collision. Initial conditions: Cart 1 has an unknown mass and is traveling at 30cm/s. Cart 2 has a mass of 150g and is travelling at -30cm/s. Final Conditions: Velocity of Cart 1 is 0 and the Velocity of Cart 2 is Unknown. What is the Final Velocity of Cart 2 and the Mass of Cart 1? v1i = 30; % velocity initial of cart 1 in cm/s in the right direction v2i =...
Use the worked example above to help you solve this problem. Two billiard balls of identical mass move toward each other as shown in the figure. Assume that the collision between them is perfectly elastic. If the initial velocities of the balls are v1i = +25.2 cm/s and v2i = ?20.1 cm/s, what are the velocities of the balls after the collision? Assume friction and rotation are unimportant. (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.) v1f = cm/s...
PRACTICE IT . Use the worked example above to help you solve this problem. Two billiard balls of identical mass move toward each other as shown in the figure. Assume that the collision between them is perfectly elastic. If the initial velocities of the balls are v1i = +25.2 cm/s and v2i = −21.8 cm/s, what are the velocities of the balls after the collision? Assume friction and rotation are unimportant.

A 0.149 kg glider is moving to the right on a frictionless, horizontal air track with a speed of 0.900 m/s . It has a head-on collision with a 0.301 kg glider that is moving to the left with a speed of 2.18 m/s . Suppose the collision is elastic. Part A Find the magnitude of the final velocity of the 0.149 kg glider. Why can’t I use this equaton given to me by my professor: v1f=(m1-m2)/(m1+m2)*v1i?
Two objects collide head-on (see figure below). The first object is moving with an initial speed of v1i = 8.06 m/s and the second object is moving with an initial speed of v2i = 10.00 m/s. Assuming the collision is elastic, m1 = 5.24 kg, and m2 = 6.30 kg, determine the final velocity of each object. (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer. Positive is to the right, and negative is to the left. Due to the...

A car of mass m 2000.0kg is moving at speed vi25.0 m/s towards East. A truck of mass m2 6000.0kg is moving at speed v2i-10.0m/s towards North. They collide at an m1- intersection and get entangled (complete inelastic collision). 1. What is the magnitude and direction of the final velocity of the entangled automobiles? 2. How much kinetic energy is lost in the collision. That is, calculate the change in the kinetic energy of the system
Two carts are on a flat and frictionless track. Cart 1 has an initial velocity vti-+6 m/s. Cart 2 has an initial velocity v2i +2 m/s. The two carts collide elastically. Cart 1 ends with a velocity of vif -+1 m/s and cart 2 ends with a velocity of v2f +3 m/s. a. What is the set of equation(s) that describes the final velocity(s) of a collision? b.
