Question

If half the kinetic energy of the initially moving object (m1m1) is transferred to the other object (m2m2), what is the ratio of their masses? Express your answers using three significant figures separated by a comma.

Answer 1

0.25( m1m1) , 0.75( m2m2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Noted the formula for kinetic energy is 1/2(Mass × Velocity).

Therefore the original value of the mass is 0.5, giving half away makes it 0.25 to another mass which is primarily 0.5. This now makes the new mass 0.25+0.5=0.75.

Thank you.
