The 6 kg block is then released and accelerates
to the right, toward the 3 kg block. The
surface is rough and the coefficient of friction
between each block and the surface is 0.4 . The
two blocks collide, stick together, and move
to the right. Remember that the spring is not
attached to the 6 kg block.
Find the speed of the 6 kg block just before
it collides with the 3 kg block.
Answer in units of m/s.
