4.
On a day with heavy
rainfall, when the roads were slippery, the two cars, A and B, collided at right angles at the
intersection. During the collision, the cars became entangled (AB) and moved off together
to bump to a huge old tree. Calculate the velocity (km/h) of car B just before collision with
car A at the intersection. Right after bumping with the tree, determine the new velocity of
the "entangled" cars. Also, compute for the percent energy lost from the cars after the two
collisions occurred. Neglect the geometry of the cars before and after collision. Other
details are tabulated below:
Parameter
Mass of car A, m₁ (kg)
Mass of car B, mB (kg)
Velocity of car A just before collision
with car B, VA1 (km/h)
Velocity of car B just before collision
with car A, VB1 (km/h)
Coefficient of restitution between
cars A and B, CAB
Coefficient of restitution between the
entangled cars (AB) and the tree (C),
eABC
Value (with respect to your student number)
