Two carts mounted on an air track are moving toward one another. Cart 1 has a speed of 3.40 m/s and a mass of 0.500 kg. Cart 2 has a mass of 0.670 kg. (a) If the total momentum of the system is to be zero, what is the initial speed of cart 2? -2.5 Incorrect: Your answer is incorrect. Can you express the magnitude of the momentum of each cart in terms of its mass and speed? If the total momentum of the two carts is to be zero and they are traveling in opposite directions, how does the magnitude of the momentum of cart 1 compare to the magnitude of the momentum of cart 2? m/s (b) Does it follow that the kinetic energy of the system is also zero since the momentum of the system is zero? Yes No (c) Determine the system's kinetic energy in order to substantiate your answer to part (b). J

Your Answer: Answer units
Two carts are on an air track (no friction). The first cart, with a mass of 1.0 kg, is traveling at 1.0 m/s towards a second stationary cart, of mass 0.7 kg. Both carts have Velcro bumpers and attach to each other after the collision. What is the final speed of both carts after the collision? (5 marks)
Cart 1, with m1= 5.5 kg, is moving on a frictionless linear air track at an initial speed of 1.7 m/s. It undergoes an elastic collision with an initially stationary cart 2, with m2, an unknown mass. After the collision, cart 1 continues in its original direction at 0.6 m/s. 1) The horizontal component of the momentum is conserved for A. cart 1. B. cart 2. C. the system of cart 1 and cart 2. D. Momentum is not conserved...
Two carts are sitting on air track (frictionless surface). Assume cart A has mass of .50 kg, cart B has mass of 1.0 kg. You push cart A and give it an initial speed of 5.0 m/s toward B which was originally at rest. The two carts stick together and move together. Right after collision, the air is turned off so the two carts slide to a stop due to kinetic friction. Assume the coefficient of kinetic friction is .20....
48) Two carts are moving towards one another at speeds of 2 m/s. Cart 1 has a mass of 1.5 kg and cart 2 has a mass of 0.5 kg. After the collision the 1.5-kg cart stops while the other cart moves back the way it came at some speed . Determine the final speed of the 0.5-kg cart and say whether this collision is elastic or inelastic . Represent this process with a sketch, an impulse-momentum bar chart, and...
