Yes.
Elastic collision: objects bound against each other after the collision. - One is moving and the other is at rest. - Both objects are moving. Inelastic collision: objects stick together after the collision. - One is moving and the other is at rest. - Both objects are moving.
The rest position in a wave is the position where the particles of the medium are when they are not vibrating. It is the equilibrium position that the particles return to when there is no disturbance. In a transverse wave, the rest position is the position of the particles when the wave is not passing through.
The maximum distance that particles of a medium move from their rest position is called amplitude.
Amplitudethe maximum distance the particles of the medium carrying the wave move away from their rest position
The speed of each car after the collision depends on how the collision occurs. If it is an elastic collision, both cars will move with different speeds, determined by the conservation of momentum and kinetic energy principles. If it is an inelastic collision, the cars will move together at a speed determined by the conservation of momentum principle. More information is needed to calculate the final speeds accurately.

I won't do all the algebra but here's the setup; Both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved in an elastic collision so you set the known momentum of puck 1, before the collision equal to the sum of the unknown momentum's of puck1 & puck2 after the collision. You then set the known kinetic energy of puck1 before collision to the sum of the kinetic energies of puck1 & puck2 after the collision. This gives you two equations in the unknown velocities after the collision. Solve for one velocity from the momentum equation, square it and substitute it in the KE equation. This will give you a quadratic equation in one unknown velocity. Solve for the two possible solutions. Try each solution back in the original momentum equation. One solution will give a non physical result so you discard it and use the one that gives you a physically possible solution. One possible nonphysical result is if puck2 remains at rest and puck1 continues East (positive velocity). I chose East as positive for convienence. So if an unknown velocity comes out negative it means its moving West.
If a particle hits a gold nucleus in a head-on collision, the two would come to a rest for a very brief moment and then the particle would bounce straight back. This is describing a hypothetical situation proposed for Rutherford's gold foil experiment where he confirmed a small positively charged nucleus was present in atoms.

The maximum distance that particles of a medium move from rest is called the amplitude of the wave. It represents the maximum displacement of the particles from their equilibrium position as the wave passes through the medium.
A wave's ___________ is a measure of how far the particles in a medium move away from their normal rest position.
Yes.
Amplitude.
it is possible but it is not fun for the rest of the room.
