Car 1 and Car 2 have the same mass. Which of the following statements is true?

• Car 1 has the most kinetic energy because it is moving at a faster rate of speed.

• Car 2 has the least amount of kinetic energy because it is actually smaller than car one.

• Car 2 has the most kinetic energy because it is moving at a slower rate of speed.

• Car 1 has the least amount of kinetic energy because it is moving at a faster rate of speed.

The two sleds shown below are about to collide. If they stick together in the collision, what will happen after the collision? (In this collision, there is no friction between the sleds and the snow.)

• The two sleds will move to the left.

• The two sleds will move to the right.

• There is not enough information to know which sled will be pushed backward.

• The two sleds will be motionless in the middle.
