Bart and Nelson challenged each other to a bumper car game.Bart, whose car had a mass of 120 kg (with him in it), traveledwest at a velocity of 9 m/s. Nelson and his car had a total mass of150 kg traveled a velocity of 7 m/s east, heading towards Bart. Thetwo had a head-on collision. Use the frame of reference in whichthe east is positive.

a) If Bart left the collision at a velocity of 7 m/s east, whatvelocity did Nelson leave with?

b) Determine the total kinetic energy for Bart and Nelson beforethe collision. Determine the total kinetic energy after thecollision.
