Consider a collision between the two carts of Table 6.1, starting from the same initial velocities, but with \(v_{\mathrm{EI} x, \mathrm{f}}=+0.30 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\). Make a table like Table 6.1 for this situation, and compare the amount of kinetic energy converted to internal energy in the Earth reference frame and in a reference frame \(\mathrm{M}\) moving at \(-0.20 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\) relative to the track.
