When cars are equipped with flexible bumpers, they will bounce off each other during low-speed collisions, thus causing less damage. In one such accident, a 1750kg car traveling to the right at 1.60m/s collides with a 1450kg car going to the left at 1.10m/s . Measurements show that the heavier car's speed just after the collision was 0.260m/s in its original direction. You can ignore any road friction during the collision.

A:What was the speed of the lighter car just after the collision?
B:Calculate the change in the combined kinetic energy of the two-car system during this collision.
