A2.00-kg object traveling east at 20.0 m/s collides with a 3.00-kg object traveling west at 10.0 m/s.
after the collision, the 2.00-kg object has a velocity 5.00 m/s to the west. how much kinetic energy
was lost during the collision?

Momentum = mass x velocity

Before collision
Momentum 1 = 2 kg x 20 m /s = 40 kg x m/s
Momentum 2 = 3 kg x -10m/s = -30 kg x m/s

After collision
Momentum 1 = 2 kg x -5 m/s = -10 m/s
Momentum 2 = 3 kg x V2 = 3V2

Total momentum before = total momentum after
40 + -30 = -10 + 3V2
V2 = 6.67 m/s

Total kinetic energy before
= (1/2) [ 2 kg * 20 m/s * 2 + 3 kg * ( -10 m/s) *2 ]
= 550 J

Total kinetic energy after
= (1/2) [ 2 kg * ( - 5 m/s) * 2 + 3 kg * 6.67 m/s *2 ]
= 91.73 J

Total kinetic energy lost during collision
=550 J - 91.73 J
= 458.27 J
