A small ball of mass 2.00 kilograms is moving at a velocity 1.50 meters/second. It hits a larger, stationary ball of mass 5.00 kilograms. What is the kinetic energy of the system after the collision if the collision is elastic?

Vocaloid:

For elastic collisions, KE is conserved Use KE = (1/2)mv^2 on the system to calculate the energy before the collision
