Collisions in one dimension?
On a frictionless horizontal air table, puck A (with mass 0.253 kg ) is moving toward puck B (with mass 0.374 kg ), which is initially at rest. After the collision, puck A has velocity 0.125 m/s to the left, and puck B has velocity 0.650 m/s to the right.
Part A: What was the speed vAi of puck A before the collision?
Part B:Calculate ΔK, the change in the total kinetic energy of the system that occurs during the collision.

Take rightward velocity to be positive, leftward velocity to be negative.
A.
Before collision: m₁ = 0.253 kg, u₁ = vAi (m/s), m₂ = 0.374 kg, u₂ = 0 m/s
After collision: m₁ = 0.253 kg, v₁ = -0.125 m/s, m₂ = 0.374 kg, v₂ = 0.650 m/s
Conservation of momentum: m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂
0.253u₁ + 0.374*0 = 0.253*(-0.125) + 0.374*0.650
Speed of puck A before the collision, uAi = u₁ = 0.836 m/s
B.
The change of total kinetic energy of the system, ΔK
= m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ - m₁u₁ - m₂u₂
= (1/2)m₁v₁² + (1/2)m₂v₂² - (1/2)m₁u₁² - (1/2)m₂u₂²
= (1/2)*0.253*(-0.125)² + (1/2)*0.374*0.650² - (1/2)*0.253*0.836² - (1/2)*0.374*0² J
= -0.00743 J
Consider velocity towards right as positive
Conservation of momentum
mA*vAi + mB*vBi = mA*vAf + mB*vBf
0.253*vAi + 0.374*0 = 0.253*(-0.125) + 0.374*(0.650)
0.253*vAi = 0.253*(-0.125) + 0.374*(0.650)
vAi = [0.253*(-0.125) + 0.374*(0.650)] / 0.253
vAi = 0.836 m/s to right
ΔK = Final KE - Initial KE
ΔK = (½mA*vAf² + ½mB*vBf²) - (½mA*vAi² + ½mB*vBi²)
ΔK = (½0.253*(-0.125)² + ½0.374*0.650²) - (½0.253*0.836² + ½0.374*0²)
ΔK = -0.007426 J
There was a loss of 7.426 mJ
A. ( MV)ai +(MV)bi = ( MV)af +(MV)bf
(0.253)Vai + 0 = (0.253)(-0.125) + (0.374)(+0.650) ... solve for Vai
Vai = [(0.253)(-0.125) + (0.374)(+0.650)] / 0.253 = 0.836 m/s to the right
B. K energy = (1/2)mv^2 <<<< squaring v makes all KE positive, so you can ignore signs for direction in this calculation
delta K = (1/2)(0.253)(0.125^2) + (1/2)(0.374)(0.650^2) - (1/2)(0.253)(0.836^2)
.... use a calculator
