Answer:
Speed of the car 1 =
Speed of the car 2 =
Explanation:
Given:
Mass of the car 1 , M₁ = Twice the mass of car 2(M₂)
mathematically,
M₁ = 2M₂
Kinetic Energy of the car 1 = Half the kinetic energy of the car 2
KE₁ = 0.5 KE₂
Now, the kinetic energy for a body is given as

where,
m = mass of the body
v = velocity of the body
thus,

or

or

or

or

or
.................(1)
also,

or

or

or

or

or

or

or

or

and, from equation (1)

Hence,
Speed of car 1 =
Speed of car 2 =
Answer:
F = 2(50 N) - (50 N) = 50 N
Explanation:
The direction of F is the direction in which the two students are pushing.
