You are given two carts, a and b. they look identical and you are told that they are made of the same material. you place a at rest on an air track and give b a constant velocity directed to the right so that it collides elastically with a. after the collision, both carts move to the right, the velocity of b being smaller than what it was before the collision. what do you conclude?

Drag each item into the proper state of matter category.
