A block of mass .250 kg traveling at (1.0 m/s)y hits a second block with a .375 kg mass travelling at (1.2m/s)x.  

a) What is the velocity of the 1st block after they hit each other?  Assume the 2nd block has a velocity of (.10m/s)x + (0.37 m/s) y.

b) 2nd block encounters a rough patch on the table, where the coefficient of friction is .30.  How far does the block go before it stops?
