Q1-Assume momentum is conserved in this case.
A cart of mass 0.509kg is moving on a friction balanced track with a speed 0.43m/s. It then collides with another cart of mass 0.546kg that is at rest, and become stuck with it. What is the speed in (m/s) after collision?
Assume momentum is conserved in this case.
Q2-Cart A of mass 0.749kg is moving on a friction balanced track with a speed 0.476m/s. It then collides with cart B of unknown mass which is at rest. After collision, the two carts are stuck together with a speed 0.272m/s. What is the mass of cart B (in unit of kg)?
Q3-Assume momentum is conserved in this case.
Cart A of mass 0.929kg is moving on a friction balanced track with a speed 0.44m/s. It then collides with cart B of mass 0.433kg which is at rest. After collision, cart A's speed slows down to 0.129m/s. What is the speed of cart B in (m/s) after collision?
Q4-
Assume momentum is conserved in this case.
Cart A of unknown mass is moving on a friction balanced track with a speed 0.427m/s. It then collides with cart B of mass 0.407kg which is at rest, becoming stuck together with a speed 0.193m/s. What is the mass of cart A in (kg) after collision?
