Expert Solution

Consider the incline

--------------

Consider the block

When the block slides up the incline, initial kinetic energy is converted to potential energy but some portion of initial kinetic energy is lost due to friction.

A block of mass m = 2.1 kg slides down a 36 ° inclined ramp that has a height h = 3.1 m. At the bottom, it hits a block of mass M = 7.1 kg that is at rest on a horizontal surface. Assume a smooth transition at the bottom of the ramp. If the collision is elastic and friction can be ignored, determine the distance the mass m will travel up the ramp after the collision.
