a 700 kg car is waiting at a stop light, when a 1200 kg car coasting at 4.0m/s strikes it from the rear. the cars do not stick together, nor is the collision perfectly elastic. The front car moves ahead at 5m/s after the collision. What is the speed of the rear car after the collision?

A red stunt car of mass 800 kg moves at 25 m/s east. A green stunt car of mass 1200 kg moves at 15 m/s west. In a movie stunt, the car’s collide and stick together. What is the initial momentum of each car? What is the initial total momentum of the system? What is the total momentum of the system after the collision? What is the velocity of the cars immediately after the collision? ...
The driver of one car has a mass of 1200 kg and is traveling at 10 m/s westward when he collides with another car with a mass of 2000 kg that is traveling 15 m/s northward. The two cars stick together after colliding. Please show all work. a) What is the total momentum before the collision and after the collision? b) What are the speed and direction of the cars after the collision? c) If coefficient of kinetic friction between...
A 1200-kg car is moving at 16.0 m/s due north. A 1500-kg car is moving at 20.0 m/s due east. The two cars simultaneously approach an icy intersection where, with no brakes or steering, they collide and stick together. 1) Determine the speed of the combined two-car wreck immediately after the collision. (Express your answer to two significant figures.) m/sm/s 2) Determine the direction of the combined two-car wreck immediately after the collision. (Express your answer to two significant figures.)
A railroad car of 2000 kg coasting at 3.0 m/s overtakes and locks together with an identical car coasting on the same track in the same direction at 2.0 m/s. What is the speed of the cars after the lock together?
A 1200 kg car traveling 45.0o south of east at 18.0 m/s collides with a 850 kg car traveling north at 23.0 m/s. The cars stick together. What is the velocity of the wreckage just after the collision?
In the "before" part of the figure, car A (mass 1200 kg) is stopped at a traffic light when it is rear-ended by car B (mass 1200 kg). Both cars then slide with locked wheels until the frictional force from the slick road (with a low μk of 0.16) stops them, at distances dA = 8.0 m and dB = 5.3 m. What are the speeds of (a) car A and (b) car B at the start of the sliding,...
An 800 kg car moving at 4 m/sec to the right strikes a 400 kg car moving to the left. If the cars stick together and stop moving right after the collision, what was the velocity of the 400 kg car? It was stationary 2 m/sec to the left 8 m/sec to the left 4 m/sec to the left
12. A 1500-kg car traveling at 30 m/s east collides with a 3000-kg car traveling at 20 m/s south. The two cars stick together after the collision. What is the speed of the cars after collision?
A 900 kg car is traveling at 15 m/s when it suddenly collides with a 750 kg car traveling north at 20 m/s. The cars stick together after the collision. What is the speed of the wreckage just after the collision?
) A 1000-kg car approaches an intersection traveling north at 20.0 m/s. A 1200-kg car approaches the same intersection traveling east at 22.0 m/s. The two cars collide at the intersection and lock together. Ignoring any external forces that act on the cars during the collision, what is the velocity of the cars immediately after the collision?
