1. If we push one cart [Cart A] into a second stationary cart (Cart B}, vm- is nonzero and VBEZD , respectively. Assume no outside forces will be involved and the collision is elastic (Le. both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved). Derive the general equation for the velocity of Cart A after the collision VA: as well as the velocity of Cart B after the collision V3,: . We want these to he in terms of known quanties: initial velocity VAJ- and the mass of the carts mA and ma . Refer to the \"Useful Theory\" section below to get you started.
