Review. A 60.0-kg person running at an initial speed of 4.00 m/s jumps onto a 120-kg cart initially at rest (Fig. P9.37). The person slides on the carts top surface and finally comes to rest relative to the cart. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the person and the cart is 0.400. Friction between the cart and ground can be ignored. (a) Find the final velocity of the person and cart relative to the ground.

Problems 44 and 45 are paired. C A model rocket is shot straight up. As it reaches the highest point in its trajectory, it explodes in midair into three pieces with velocities indicated by the arrows in Figure P10.44, as viewed from directly above the explosion. Rank the mass of each piece in order from smallest to largest and justify your answer. FIGURE P10.44 Problems 44 and 45.
