Question
Two objects collide head-on (see figure below). The first object is moving with an initial speed of v1j = 7.99 m/s and
the second object is moving with an initial speed of v2j = 10.00 m/s. Assuming the collision is elastic, m1 = 5.05 kg,
and m, = 6.17 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 nature of this problem, do not use rounded intermediate
values in your calculations-including answers submitted in WebAssign.)
