@Abhisar
OpenStudy (abhisar):
hav u tried it urself ?
OpenStudy (eric_d):
what formula do I need to use
OpenStudy (eric_d):
Based on the diagram, momentum is conserved

Potential energy of the spring is converted into kinetic energy
OpenStudy (eric_d):
ok..
OpenStudy (abhisar):
but there is no k given
OpenStudy (eric_d):
I think energy of spring = total k.e of both the trolleys
OpenStudy (fifciol):
yes

OpenStudy (abhisar):
yes that's possible
OpenStudy (fifciol):
and you can calculate v of trolley Q by applying conservation of momentum
OpenStudy (abhisar):
yes !
4\(\times 1.5=3\times V\\ =>V=(4\times 1.5)/3\)
OpenStudy (eric_d):
So, the formula is mu+mv=0
OpenStudy (abhisar):
yes because initially both were at rest

OpenStudy (abhisar):
yes....!
Now add the KEs of both blocks
