Two balls are traveling towards each other an have an inelastic collision. Ball A has a mass of 3.1 kg and a velocity of 1.00 m/s to the right while ball B has a mass of 1.9 kg and a velocity of 1.80 m/s to the left. After the collision, ball A has a velocity of 0.50 m/s to the left. Find the velocity of ball B and use that to find out the group total final kinetic energy.

How did the Civil War impact the Southern economy?
The destruction of southern railroads benefited steamboat and shipping businesses who used the oceans
and rivers to send supplies to cities across the South.
The destruction of southern railroads limited southern exports from reaching the North, which reduced tax
revenue for southern states.
The destruction of southern railroads benefited southern laborers because new employment opportunities
became available.
The destruction of southern railroads limited the South's ability to import and export resources, which
restricted the South's economic recovery from the war.

In 1865, the Ku Klux Klan was founded as a social
club for Confederate veterans of the Civil War who
felt disempowered once the Union regained control
of the South. At first, the Klan was a rowdy bunch
of young Southern men who dressed up in sheets
and rode their horses through the dark countryside.
Very quickly, however, they realized the power they
had to inspire terror, especially among the many
displaced freed slaves. The Klan began to take
violent action to preserve white supremacy in the
South despite the reforms instituted under Radical
Reconstruction. They beat and lynched freed
blacks, Northern carpetbaggers, and Northern
sympathizers and supporters. Soon, news of the
Klan's actions and goals spread, and within a year
there were a number of Klan organizations in
various counties and states in the South. The Klan
had its first organizational meeting in April 1867,
and Confederate general Nathan Bedford Forrest
assumed leadership as the Klan's first Grand
Wizard. Despite the early attempts at centralized
organization, it continued to operate primarily as a
collection of independent local groups bound
together loosely by racist and anti-Northern
ideologies.

How did the result of the Civil War impact the culture of the South?. In support of former Confederate soldiers, white southerners elected Nathan Bedford Forrest to Congress because he promised to oppose the reforms instituted by Radical Reconstruction.

Angered by northern interference in southern society, white southerners developed methods to intimidate and
limit the rights of African Americans in an effort to maintain supremacy.

Angered by northern interference in the South's Reconstruction effort, white southerners organized social groups to support the election carpetbaggers who held anti-Northern ideologies.

In support of former Confederate soldiers, white southerners established an organization that used terror tactics to fight against nativist ideologies spread by former Union soldiers.
