- a block with a mass of 0.5 kg is released from rest on a frictionless track at a distance 2.5m above the top of the table. it then collides elastically with an object having mass m2=1.0kg that is initially at rest on the table as shown in the figure. the table is h2=2.oo m . a)How far away from the bottom of the table do the objects land ? Hints : determine the velocities just after the collision . how high does object 1 travel back up the track. b) suppose the collision is inelastic , where does combined object land please see attached imagearrow_forwardD-E thank you!arrow_forward24 1arrow_forward
