A 710- kg car stopped at an intersection is rear-ended by a 1780- kg truck moving with a speed of 16.0 m/s . Part A If the car was in neutral and its brakes were off, so that the collision is approximately elastic, find the final speed of the truck. v truck = m/s Part B Find the final speed of the car. v car v c a r = nothing.
here,
the mass of car , m1 = 710 kg
mass of Truck , m2 = 1780 kg
initial speed of truck , u2 = 16 m/s
let the final speed of car and truck be v1 and v2
using conservation of momentum
m2 * u = m1 * v1 + m2 * v2
1780 * 16 = 710 * v1 + 1780 * v2 .....(1)
using conservation of kinetic energy
0.5 * m2 * u^2 = 0.5 * m1 * v1^2 + 0.5 * m2 * v2^2
1780 * 16^2 = 710 * v1^2 + 1780 * v2^2 .....(2)
from (1) and (2)
v1 = 22.88 m/s
v2 = 6.88 m/s
a)
the final speed of car is 22.88 m/s
b)
the final speed of truck is 6.88 m/s

A van, stopped at a traffic light, is hit directly in the rear by another car traveling at 4 m/s. Assume that the transmission of the van is in neutral, the brakes are not being applied, and the collision is elastic. If the mass of the car is 835 kg, and the final velocity of the car is -0.4 m/s, what is the mass of the van kg and what is the final velocity of the van?
