What is the magnitude and direction of the velocity of m2

Reference no: EM13544622

A cart of mass m1 = 0.500 kg moves with a velocity of 0.900 m/s to the right on a frictionless track. It collides with another cart of mass m2 = 0.500 kg at rest. Car m1 stops and m2 moves in the direction that m1 was traveling. What is the magnitude and direction of the velocity of m2?

Determine radial velocity of ring as it reaches moving end : A ring is fitted loosely (with no friction) around a long, smooth rod of length L = 0.561 m. The rod is fixed at one end, and the other end is spun in a horizontal circle at a constant angular velocity of ? = 3.57 rad/s. The ring has zero radial velo..

What is the work done by the force of gravity : A 255 kg piano slides 4.2 m down a 30° incline and is kept from accelerating by a man who is pushing back on it parallel to the incline (Fig. 6-36). The effective coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.40 Figure 6-36

What is the magnitude of the EMF in millivolts : An astronaut who is repairing the outside of her spaceship accidently pushes away a 98.9-cm-long steel rod, which flies off at 10.5 m/s, never to be seen again. As it happens, the rod is oriented perpendicularly to the magnetic field in that region o..

Determine the radius of curvature of p of the turn : An airplane, traveling at a constant speed of 50 m/s, is executing a horizontal turn. if the plane is banked at theta = degrees, when the pilot experiences only a normal force on the seat of the plane, determine the radius of curvature of p of the tu..

Power is required of force motor exerts on cab via cable : A fully loaded, slow-moving freight elevator has a cab with a total mass of 1150 kg, which is required to travel upward 49 m in 3.1 min, starting and ending at rest. The elevator's counterweight has a mass of only 1025 kg, and so the elevator motor m..
