The small 2.9-kg carriage is moving freely along the horizontal with a speed of 3.4 m/s at time t = 0. A force applied to the carriage in the direction opposite to motion produces two impulse "peaks," one after the other, as shown by the graphical plot of the readings of the instrument that measured the force. Approximate the loading by the dashed lines and determine the velocity v of the carriage for t = 2.1 s.

For the preceding problem, find the final speed of the case of each sled for the case of an elastic collision.
In an elastic collision of two particles with masses m1 and m2, the initial velocities are u1 and u2 = u1. If the initial kinetic energies of the two particles are equal, find the conditions on u1/u2 and m1/m2 such that m1 is at rest after the collision. Examine both cases for the sign of .
Check Your Understanding The changes of momentum for Philae and for Comet 67/P were equal (in magnitude). Were the impulses experienced by Philae and the comet equal? How about the forces? How about the changes of kinetic energies?
Two identical objects (such as billiard balls) have a one-dimensional collision in which one is initially motionless. After the collision, the moving object is stationary and the other moves with the same speed as the other originally had. Show that both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved.
A 2-kg object moving to the right with a speed of 4 m/s makes a head-on, elastic collision with a 1-kg object that is initially at rest. The velocity of the 1-kg object after the collision is (a) greater than 4 m/s, (b) less than 4 m/s, (c) equal to 4 m/s, (d) zero, or (e) impossible to say based on the information provided.
