Please I want explaintion for this question I want a method to deal with such a problem because I have uploaded such a question many time but I didn't understand the solution , So please I want step by step

A 3.00 kg object moving to the right at 5.00 ms-1 collides elastically with a 2.00 kg object also
moving toward the right at 2.00 ms-1. Find the velocity of each object after the collision.

Expert Solution

Step 1

In elastic collision, total momentum as well as the total kinetic energy of the system must be conserved. Since both the objects are moving in the same directions initially, their initial velocities will be in the same direction. Let 3.00kg object be 1 and 2.00kg object be 2. The momentum conservation principle gives,
