Question

a cart for hauling ore out of a goldmine has a mass of 300 kg. it is movinf at 15 m/s and comes to a stop in 10 s. its change in momentum is (?)

science physics

Answer 1

Answer #1

Momentum is given by:

P = m*V

Change in momentum will be given by:

dP = Pf - Pi

dP = m*Vf - m*Vi

m = mass of cart = 300 kg

Vf = final speed = 0 m/sec

Vi = initial speed = 15 m/sec

So,

dP = 300*0 - 300*15

dP = -4500 kg.m/sec

Cart A (mass 2.0 kg) and Cart B (mass 3.0 kg) are separated by a compressed spring and attached to each other by a string. Initially they are sitting at rest on a frictionless surface. When the string is burned, Cart A moves to the left at 1.5 m/s. Cart B moves to the right and encounters a rough surface. Cart B comes to a stop after traveling a distance of 0.35 m on the rough surface. What is the...
