Physics 3710 – Problem Set #5 Relativistic dynamics, I

Problems 1-5 refer to: One mass, m₁ = 1 (in some units), collides head-on with a second mass, m₂ = 2 , and sticks to it, forming a composite body of mass M . There are no external forces. Observer O records m₁ as initially moving with dimensionless velocity, u1 = +0.9 in the x - direction, while m₂ is recorded to be at rest. Do not make unwarranted assumptions about M , please; that’s the point of this set of problems.
