A small wooden box of mass m 1 50 kg and initial speed v 5 00 m s collides head on with a large metal block of mass m2 12 0 kg which is initially at rest on a frictionless horizontal surface Immediately after the collision the 1 50 kg box bounces back with a speed of 1 00 m s while the large block moves to the right and goes up a frictionless 20 inclined plane The acceleration of gravity is g 9 80 m s Calculate the speed of the 12 0 kg metal block immediately after the collision a 6 pts b 5 pts Calculate how far up the incline the metal block my will go until it stops momentarily distance d c 5 pts If the collision lasts 0 020 s calculate the average force on the wooden box and the average force on the metal block during the collision and state their directions left or right d 4 pts Calculate the amount of kinetic energy lost in the collision For full credit show all your work Ma d
