Two objects, m1 = 0.6 kg and m2 = 4.4 kg undergo a one-dimensional head-on collision as shown in thediagram.

Their initial velocities along the one-dimension path are vi1 = 32.4 m/s [right] and vi2 = 8.6 m/s [left].
The two objects stick together after the perfectly inelastic collision
a) Calculate the velocity after the collision.
b) Determine how much kinetic energy is lost due to the collision.
