A boxcar traveling at 10 m/s approaches a string of 2 identical boxcars sitting stationary on the track. The moving boxcar collides and links with the stationary cars and they all move off together along the track. What is the final speed of the cars immediately after the collision? (You may take the mass of each boxcar to be 18,537 kg.) m/s

3. A train boxcar traveling in the positive x-direction with a velocity, u 10.00 m/s R, passes directly in front of an observer on a stationary platform. At the precise moment the boxcar passes the observer, a particle is launched from the bottom, left corner of the boxcar with an initial speed, vo' 8.00 m/s at an angle of 0 30.0° above the horitonatal according to an observer on the boxcar (shown below left). Immediately following the launch, the boxcar...
