Answer:
160 kg
12 m/s
Explanation:
= Mass of first car = 120 kg
= Mass of second car
= Initial Velocity of first car = 14 m/s
= Initial Velocity of second car = 0 m/s
= Final Velocity of first car = -2 m/s
= Final Velocity of second car
For perfectly elastic collision
Applying in the next equation
Mass of second car = 160 kg
Velocity of second car = 12 m/s
For an uniformly accelerated motion, we can write
where
is the acceleration of this motion, which in this problem is the gravitational acceleration, with a negative sign because it points downward, against the direction of the motion; h=0.540 m is the distance covered by the flea, and 
is the initial velocity.
At the maximum height, the velocity is zero, so
. Therefore we can solve to find :
where
At the maximum height, the velocity is zero, so
