Determine the total kinetic energy before and after a collision of a 145-g rubber ball when it moves at 29.0 m/s and collides with a stationary 5.26-kg block on a trolley, allowing it to move without significant friction. After hitting the block, the rubber ball rebounds directly backward, and the block moves forward at 1.11 m/s.
