Question

What is the combined kinetic energy of the two blocks just after the collision?

 

After the friction starts, how much time is required for the blocks to
come to rest?

 

The track stays frictionless until point ?, where the friction coefficient becomes uk = 0.7. How far do the blocks slide before coming to rest?
