Two carts on a straight track collide head on. The first cart was moving at 3.6 m/s in the positive x direction and the second was moving at 2.4 m/s in the opposite direction. After the collision, the second car continues moving in its initial direction of motion at 0.24 m/s. If the mass of the second car is 5.0 times that of the first, what is the mass and final velocity of the first car?
The velocity of a 10-kg object is given by v=5t2i(7t+2t3)j, where if t is in seconds, then v will be in meters per second. a. What is the net force on the object as a function of time? b. What is the momentum of the object when t = 15.0 s?
A family is skating. The father (75 kg) skates at 8.2 m/s and collides and sticks to the mother (50 kg), who was initially moving at 3.3 m/s and at 45 with respect to the father’s velocity. The pair then collides with their daughter (30 kg), who was stationary, and the three slide off together. What is their final velocity?
Two carts on an air track have the same mass and speed and are traveling towards each other. If they collide and stick together, find (a) the total momentum and (b) total kinetic energy of the system, (c) Describe a different colliding system with this same final momentum and kinetic energy.
A 1.5 kg car is moving towards the right at 4 m/s collides head on with 8.5 kg car moving towards the left at 2 m/s, and they stick together. What is the velocity of combined cars after the collision? Assume that the positive direction is from left to right. Make sure that your final answer has a correct sign.
Three objects AA, BB, and CC are moving as shown in the figure below (Figure 1). Assume that vAvAv_A = 12.0 m/sm/s, vBvBv_B = 9.6 m/sm/s, and vCvCv_C = 2.8 m/sm/s. a) Find the xx-component of the net momentum of the particles if we define the system to consist of BB and CC. Express your answer in kilogram meters per second. b) Find the xx-component of the net momentum of the particles if we define the system to consist of all three objects. Express your answer in kilogram meters per second. both answers are not zero, tried that its wrong.
Flick various numbers of marbles at each other at the same speed. Is there a way to predict the number of marbles that end up traveling in each direction? Is there a way to predict the speeds they will be traveling? For example, if you had 12 marbles traveling to the right and 7 marbles traveling to the left (all with the same mass and the same speed) and they collided, what would be the result?
Problem: A force of 600 Newtons acts on a ball for 1.5 seconds after being hit by a volleyball player. Answer the following questions and write a proper solution: A. What is the change in momentum of the ball? B. If the ball has a mass of 275 grams, what is its velocity?
Miguel, the 70.0 kg bullfighter, runs toward an angry bull at a speed of 4.20 m/s. The 550. kg bull charges toward Migeul at 12.0 m/s and Miguel must jump on the bull's back at the last minute to avoid being run over. a. Hypothesize what type of collision this is? Explain your reasoning and how you would mathematically prove the type of collision.
If 2 marbles (of same mass and speed) travel from one end of a straight line runway and strike a line of marbles, is it possible to have only one marble to pop off the other end of the line at twice the speed? Why? (explain based on momentum and kinetic energy) I tried to find the momentum for the single marble and got 2mv and found the kinetic energy to be 2mv^2 but I'm not sure if it's right or how to how to explain it if it is possible or not.
