1) A ship and Morty are at rest. The ship fires a snake at Morty with velocity vsi=+100m/s.
Please show all work
a) What is the ship's velocity after it fires the snake?
b) What is Morty's velocity after he collides elastically with the snake?
c) After hitting Morty, can the snake ever catch up with the ship? Explain.
snake mass= 2.00kg
morty mass= 60.0kg
ship mass= 300kg
