Explanation :
The interaction between two objects is termed as the collision. The collision can be of two types i.e. elastic collision and inelastic collision.
In this case, two identical carts travel at the same speed toward each other, and then a collision occurs. In an inelastic collision, the momentum before and after the collision remains the same but its kinetic energy gets lost.
After the collision, both the object sticks over each other and moves with one velocity.
Out of the given graph, the graph that shows a perfectly inelastic collision is attached. It shows that after the collision both the carts move with the same velocity.
Complete Question
In an action movie, the villain is rescued from the ocean by grabbing onto the ladder hanging from a helicopter. He is so intent on gripping the ladder that he lets go of his briefcase of counterfeit money when he is 130 m above the water. If the briefcase hits the water 6.0 s later, what was the speed at which the helicopter was ascending?
Answer:
The speed of the helicopter is 
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The height at which he let go of the brief case is h = 130 m
The time taken before the the brief case hits the water is t = 6 s
Generally the initial speed of the briefcase (Which also the speed of the helicopter )before the man let go of it is mathematically evaluated using kinematic equation as
Here s is the distance covered by the bag at sea level which is zero

Answer:
W = -510.98J
Explanation:
Force = 43N, 61° SW
Displacement = 12m, 22° NE
Work done is given as:
W = F*d*cosA
where A = angle between force and displacement.
Angle between force and displacement, A = 61 + 90 + 22 = 172°
W = 43 * 12 * cos172
W = -510.98J
The negative sign shows that the work done is in the opposite direction of the force applied to it.
