Two cars A and B are running with speed of 25 m/s and 20 m/s respectively in the same direction with same mass of 900 kg. If they hit each other, find out (a) initial momentum of each car, (b) total initial momentum of the system, (c) if after accident if car A moves with 30 m/s in the same direction, find out what is the speed of car B?

A railroad car of mass 2.41 104 kg is moving with a speed of 4.10 m/s. It collides and couples with three other coupled railroad cars, each of the same mass as the single car and moving in the same direction with an initial speed of 2.05 m/s. (a) What is the speed of the four cars after the collision? (Round your answer to at least two decimal places.) (b) How much mechanical energy is lost in the collision?

Two cars collide at an icy intersection and stick together afterward. The first car has a mass of 1300 kg and was approaching at 5.00 m/s due south. The second car has a mass of 900 kg and was approaching at 23.0 m/s due west. (a) Calculate the final velocity (magnitude in m/s and direction in degrees counterclockwise from the west) of the cars. (Note that since both cars have an initial velocity, you cannot use the equations for conservation...

A railroad car moving at a speed of 3.50 m/s overtakes, collides and couples with two coupled railroad cars moving in the same direction at 1.40 m/s. All cars have a mass of mass 3.3x10^4 kg. (a) Determine the speed of the three coupled cars after the collision. (Give your answer to at least 2 decimal places.) m/s (b) Determine the kinetic energy lost in the collision. J

Four railroad cars, each of mass 2.70 104 kg, are coupled together and coasting along horizontal tracks at speed vi toward the south. A very strong but foolish movie actor, riding on the second car, uncouples the front car and gives it a big push, increasing its speed to 3.85 m/s southward. The remaining three cars continue moving south, now at 2.00 m/s. (a) Find the initial speed of the four cars. m/s (b) By how much did the potential...

When cars are equipped with flexible bumpers, they will bounce off each other during low-speed collisions, thus causing less damage. In one such accident, a 1800 kg car traveling to the right at 1.40 m/s collides with a 1450 kg car going to the left at 1.10 m/s . Measurements show that the heavier car's speed just after the collision was 0.260 m/s in its original direction. You can ignore any road friction during the collision. A-What was the speed...

Two identical cars collide at an intersection(m=1500kg). Car 1 is traveling east with a speed of 16 m/s and car 2 is traveling north with a speed of 12 m/s. Immediately after the collison, car 1 travels with a speed of 8 m/s in a direction 60 north of east. The cars do not stick together. (a) What is the speed and direction of travel for car 2 after the collision? (b) What is the change in kinetic energy of...

Two cars collided at an intersection. Their frames became enmeshed and then they moved together as one object. As an accident investigator on the scene, you were able to determine that car A, of mass 1900 kg, was initially traveling eastwards. You found that car B, of mass 1700 kg, had an onboard computer that registered its southwards velocity of 20 m/s. The tire skid marks on the pavement show that they both moved −25° south of east. You are...
