Blocks A (5.00 kg) and B (10.00 kg) move on a frictionless, horizontal surface. Initially, block B is at rest and block A is moving toward it at 4.00 m/s. The blocks are equipped with ideal spring bumpers. The collision is head-on, so all motion before and after the collision is along a straight line. What is the maximum energy stored in the spring bumpers during the collision process

1.33m/s: 13.326j

Explanation:

M1U1+M2U2=V(M1+M2)

M1=5kg, M2=10kg

U1=4.00m/s, U2=0

5*4+10*0=V(10+5)

20+0=15V

20=15V

V=20/15

V=1.333m/s

K. E=1/2MV^2

K. E= 1/2*15*1.332^2

K. E= 1/2*15*1.77689

K. E=26.65335/2

K. E=13.326j

c because the action was the roller coaster reaches bottom of hill (action) reaction would be blood tends to drain away from head

hope this !

a lot of it means it can be "burned" for energy and sold at one price. if it is scarce, the price will go up
