Question:

An object of inertia \(m_{1}\) collides totally inelastically with a stationary object of inertia \(m_{2}\). Plot the fraction of the kinetic energy lost as a function of \(m_{2} / m_{1}\) in the range \(m_{2} / m_{1}=0\) to \(m_{2} / m_{1}=4\), and discuss what happens as \(m_{2} / m_{1}\) approaches infinity.
