A 4500kg open train car is rolling on frictionless rails at 21.0m/s when it starts pouring rain. A few minutes later, the car's speed is 20.0 m/s. What mass of water has collected in the car?
Momentum before = MOmentum after
mv = mv
4500 x 22 = Y x 20
94500 = 20Y
Y = 4725kg
Mass of Rain = Mass of Train after - Mass of Train before =
4725-4500 = 225kg

A 1190-kg flatbed train car rolls along frictionless tracks at a
speed of 0.132 m/s. A 62.2-kg man stands on the flatbed and, in
order to stop the car, runs to the edge and jumps off.
0.132 m/s If the car's final velocity is zero, what is the final speed v of the man? m/s
Three identical train cars, coupled together are rolling east at 2.0 m/s. A fourth car traveling east at 4.0 m/s catches up with the three and couples to make a fourcar train. A moment later the train cars hit a fifth car that was at rest on the tracks, and it couples to make a five car train. What is the speed of the five car train? Answer in m/s.
An open train car, with a mass of 2030 kg, coasts along a horizontal track at the speed 2.33 m/s. The car passes under a loading chute and, as it does so, gravel falls vertically into it for 3.41 s at the rate of 425 kg/s. What is the car\'s speed after the loading is completed? Ignore rolling friction (as unrealistic as that may be).
A car starts to move from rest with an accession of 0.40 m / s ^ 2. A minute later the accession stops and the car moves with constant speed for 5.0 minutes. The car's brakes are finally applied and stops in 2.0 minutes slowing evenly. The total distance traveled is:
An empty freight train car of mass 10000 kg is rolling along a level of track at 2.00 m/ s . It collides with a loaded car of weight 1.96 * 10^5 n which is at rest . What is the speed of the train after the collision
A car is parked 20.0 m directly south of a railroad crossing. A train is approaching the crossing from the west, headed directly east at a speed of 55.5 m/s. The train sounds a short blast of its 312-Hz horn when it reaches a point 20.0 m west of the crossing. What frequency does the car's driver hear when the horn blast reaches the car? The speed of sound in air is 343 m/s. (Hint: Assume that only the component...
Suppose that while a mining cart is rolling along a straight, frictionless, horizontal track with some initial speed, it starts to rain. If the rain falls vertically into the cart and begins to accumulate within it, flooding the cart, determine the following 19. is the momentum of the system conserved in the horizontal direction? a. Yes b. No 20. Is the momentum of the system conserved in the vertical direction? a. Yes b. No 22.If a 1200 kg train car...
A 10,000 kg railroad car is rolling at 2.00 m/s when a 2000 kg load of gravel is suddenly dropped in. What is the car's speed just after the gravel is loaded?
