A block of mass m1 = 11.5 kg slides along a horizontal surface (with friction, μk = 0.21) a distance d = 2.15 m before striking a second block of mass m2 = 8.25 kg. The first block has an initial velocity of v = 8.25 m/s.
1. Assuming that block one stops after it collides with block two, what is block two's velocity after impact in m/s?
** answer is NOT 12.3 m/s.
