In an isolated system two cars each with a mass of 1000 kg collide. Car 1 is initially at rest while Car 2 was moving at 10 ms. They move off together. What is their speed?

You can solve this by using conservation of momentum.1) Calculate the momentum of each individual car (multiply velocity x mass).
2) Add the momentum of the two cars up.
3) After the collision, they still have the same momentum; to get the speed, just divide the total momentum by the total mass.

In an isolated system two cars each with a mass of 2500 kg collide. Car 1 is initially at rest while Car 2 was moving at 20 ms. What is their speed after the collision?

In an isolated system two cars each with a mass of 1500 kg collide Car 2 is initially at rest while Car 1 was moving at 20 m s What is their final speed?
Assuming the impact was elastic, Car1 will not be at rest, and Car2 will move at 20m/s at the same direction Car1 was previously moving.

Since momentum must be conserved, they move off at a combined speed of 5 m/s. (If the masses are different, write an equation that states that momentum is conserved: momentum before the collision equal momentum after the collision).
