1 Each of two wagons has an unloaded mass of 1200 kg . One of the wagons carries a load of mass \(m \mathrm {~kg}\) and the other wagon is unloaded. The wagons are moving towards each other on the same rails, each with speed \(3 \mathrm {~m} \mathrm {~s} ^ { - 1 }\), when they collide. Immediately after the collision the loaded wagon is at rest and the speed of the unloaded wagon is \(5 \mathrm {~m} \mathrm {~s} ^ { - 1 }\). Find the value of \(m\).
