The inertial frame of reference is a frame of reference in which all Newton law is valid ie Newton second law of motion and therefore newton first law of motion holds good. The frame of reference does not accelerate.

All the object that is in the frame of reference are at rest or moving with constant rectilinear motion with constant velocity unless acted upon by any force.

Let’s say I am in a bumper car and have a velocity of 14 m/s, driving in the positive x-direction. I and my bumped car have a ma

Answer:

160 kg

12 m/s

Explanation:

$m_1$ = Mass of first car = 120 kg

$m_2$ = Mass of second car

$u_1$ = Initial Velocity of first car = 14 m/s

$u_2$ = Initial Velocity of second car = 0 m/s

$v_1$ = Final Velocity of first car = -2 m/s

$v_2$ = Final Velocity of second car

For perfectly elastic collision

$m_{1}u_{1}+m_{2}u_{2}=m_{1}v_{1}+m_{2}v_{2}\\\Rightarrow m_2v_2=m_{1}u_{1}+m_{2}u_{2}-m_{1}v_{1}\\\Rightarrow m_2v_2=120\times 14+m_2\times 0-(120\times -2)\\\Rightarrow m_2v_2=1920\\\Rightarrow m_2=\frac{1920}{v_2}$

Applying in the next equation

$v_2=\frac{2m_1}{m_1+m_2}u_{1}+\frac{m_2-m_1}{m_1+m_2}u_2\\\Rightarrow v_2=\frac{2\times 120}{120+\frac{1920}{v_2}}\times 14+\frac{m_2-m_1}{m_1+m_2}\times 0\\\Rightarrow \left(120+\frac{1920}{v_2}\right)v_2=3360\\\Rightarrow 120v_2+1920=3360\\\Rightarrow v_2=\frac{3360-1920}{120}\\\Rightarrow v_2=12\ m/s$

$m_2=\frac{1920}{v_2}\\\Rightarrow m_2=\frac{1920}{12}\\\Rightarrow m_2=160\ kg$

Mass of second car = 160 kg

Velocity of second car = 12 m/s
