Collision-Relative motion

Q- A cart (m1 = 120 kg) is moving to the right along a track at v1i = 15 m/s when it hits a stationary cart (m2 = 360 kg) and rebounds with a speed of v1f = 7 m/s in the opposite direction.

  1. With what speed does the 360 kg cart move after the collision?
  2. An observer moves in the same direction…
