- A 300 Kg red bumper car is traveling with a velocity of +2.5 m/s. Over a 0.5 second time frame it has collided, head-on, into a 500 Kg black bumper car that is initially at rest. After the elastic collision, the red bumper car transfers all its momentum to the black bumper car. What is the final velocity of the red bumper car?arrow_forward2 balls collide head-on in an elastic collision. One ball has a mass of 4.0 kg and an initial velocity of 6.5 m/s. The second ball has a mass of 2.0 kg and its initial velocity is unknown. AFTER the collision the heavier ball has a velocity of 2.5 m/s.
