What forum should I post this in, my friend died in a horrible car accident, some of us just want more answers I guess...
Object A is in straight line motion
Object B is static
Object A impacts Object B
Object A moves straight forward 60 m and rests
Object B moves straight forward 76 m and rests
Object A has a mass of 1,500 kg
Object B has a mass of 1,500 kg
What was the velocity of Object A when it impacted Object B?
To account for some rolling resistances, Object A was a car that rolled and tore up large patches of sod, Object B was a rectangular boulder that rolled ~20 times. I guesstimated 124 mph (see below), but I can't believe it (I feel like I missed a bunch of things or didn't draw the problem right).
