A 3.0-kg object moving in the positive x direction has a one-dimensional elastic collision with a 5.0-kg object initially at rest. After the collision the 5.0-kg object has a velocity of 6.0 m/s in the positive x direction. What was the initial speed of the 3.0 kg object?
 a. 6.0 m/s
  b. 7.0 m/s
  c. 4.5 m/s
  d. 8.0 m/s
  e. 5.5 m/s

Question 2

At the lowest point in its swing when it is moving horizontally, the ball collides elastically with a 2.0-kg block initially at rest on a horizontal frictionless surface. What is the speed of the block just after the collision?
 a. 2.3 m/s
  b. 4.7 m/s
