Sure, let's break down the problem step-by-step to identify the given variables for each bumper car.
### Step 1: Identify the Variables for Bumper Car 1
We are given:
- The mass of bumper car 1
- The velocity of bumper car 1
From the problem statement:
- The mass ([tex]\(m_1\)[/tex]) of bumper car 1 is [tex]\(296 \ \text{kg}\)[/tex]
- The velocity ([tex]\(v_1\)[/tex]) of bumper car 1 is [tex]\(3.74 \ \text{m/s}\)[/tex]
So for bumper car 1:
- Mass ([tex]\(m_1\)[/tex]): [tex]\(296 \ \text{kg}\)[/tex]
- Velocity ([tex]\(v_1\)[/tex]): [tex]\(3.74 \ \text{m/s}\)[/tex]
### Step 2: Identify the Variables for Bumper Car 2
We are given:
- The mass of bumper car 2
- The velocity of bumper car 2
From the problem statement:
- The mass ([tex]\(m_2\)[/tex]) of bumper car 2 is [tex]\(222 \ \text{kg}\)[/tex]
- The velocity ([tex]\(v_2\)[/tex]) of bumper car 2 is [tex]\(1.85 \ \text{m/s}\)[/tex]
So for bumper car 2:
- Mass ([tex]\(m_2\)[/tex]): [tex]\(222 \ \text{kg}\)[/tex]
- Velocity ([tex]\(v_2\)[/tex]): [tex]\(1.85 \ \text{m/s}\)[/tex]
### Conclusion
Combining these details, we have identified the following variables:
- Bumper car 1:
- Mass: [tex]\(296 \ \text{kg}\)[/tex]
- Velocity: [tex]\(3.74 \ \text{m/s}\)[/tex]
- Bumper car 2:
- Mass: [tex]\(222 \ \text{kg}\)[/tex]
- Velocity: [tex]\(1.85 \ \text{m/s}\)[/tex]
These are the variables given for both bumper cars in the problem.
