Question: Two objects collide on a low-friction track. Object 1 experiences a magnitude of change in velocity (left|Delta vec{v}_{1} ight|=3 mathrm{~m} / mathrm{s}), while object 2

Two objects collide on a low-friction track. Object 1 experiences a magnitude of change in velocity \(\left|\Delta \vec{v}_{1}\right|=3 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\), while object 2 has \(\left|\Delta \vec{v}_{2}\right|=1 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\). How do the inertias of these two objects compare?
