Two toy cars resting on a frictionless table top are separated by a spring compressed by tying it with a thread. If the thread is cut, one car moves off to the right with a velocity of .20 m/sec and the other moves off to the left with a velocity of .45 m/sec. If the mass of the car moving to the right is .275kg wht is the mass of the car moving to the left?

In this document, the solution to a problem asked by the student is written. The problem is in physics. It deals with the mechanics of many particle system (here we discuss the case of a 2 particle system). When the description of a physical situation involves more than one object or particles, and if they experience zero net force then the sum of momentum of linear momentum of all the particles remains constant. Here we make use of this concept to analyze the situation given in the problem. The aim of this problem is to find mass of the car. So, using the analysis explained above the mass of the car is calculated. This document is written in MS Word.
