Physics

Block 1 (0.5 kg) travels withan initial velocity of [ 40i ] +[ 60j ] m/s and then collides with block2 (0.5 kg) traveling with an initialvelocity of [ -40i ] + [ -40j ]m/s.
After the collision, block 1 has a finalmomentum of [ 5i ] + [ -25j ]kg*m/s. Assume that no external forces are present andtherefore the momentum for the system of blocks is conserved.

What is the initial momentum of block1?
i +   jkg*m/s

Tries 0/3


What is the initial momentum of block2?
i +   jkg*m/s
