A 4350 kg truck, driving 7.39 m/s, runs into the back of a stationary car. After the collision, the truck moves 4.55 m/s and the car moves 11.5 m/s, both in the same direction. What is the mass of the car?

A 1425 kg truck driving at 13.0 m/s collides elastically with a stationary 1175 kg car. If the car is traveling 14.25 m/s just after the collision, what is the velocity of the truck immediately after the collision? Assume that this is a perfectly elastic collision. Round your answer to the hundredths place. Final velocity of the truck = m/s
A 2,900-kg truck runs into the rear of a 1,000-kg car that was stationary. The truck and car are locked together after the collision and move with speed 2 m/s. What was the speed of the truck before the collision?
7. A 3 000 kg truck runs into the rear of a 1 000 kg car that was stationary. The truck and car are locker together after the collision and move with speed 9 m/s. What was the speed of the truck before the collision? 8. In the previous question determine if the collision was an elastic collision.
A 7,500-kg truck runs into the rear of a 1,000-kg car that was stationary. The truck and car are locked together after the collision and move with speed 7 m/s. Compute how much kinetic energy was "lost" in this inelastic collision.
A car with mass MC = 1.26 x 103 kg runs into the back of a truck with mass MT = 3.23 x 103 kg that is initially at rest. Immediately after the collision, the car is moving with a speed of 1.09 m/s and the truck is moving with a speed of 3.29 m/s, both in the direction the car was initially traveling. What is the total kinetic energy lost in the collision? (Of course, the change in energy...
9) A 1200-kg car is travelling east at a rate of 9 m/s. A 1600-kg truck is travelling south at a rate of 13 m/s. The truck accidentally runs a stop sign and collides with the car in a completely inelastic collision. What is the speed of the combined mass after the collision? (Not Multiple Choice)
A 1100 kg car traveling initially with a speed of 26.00 m/s in an easterly direction crashes into the back of a 9 450 kg truck moving in the same direction at 20.0 m/s. The velocity of the car right after the collision is 18.0 m/s to the east. (a) What is the velocity and direction of the truck right after the collision? (Give your answer to at least four significant figures.) (b) What is the change in mechanical energy...
A 1 145.0 kg car traveling initially with a speed of 25.000 m/s in an easterly direction crashes into the back of a 9 700.0 kg truck moving in the same direction at 20.000 m/s. The velocity of the car right after the collision is 18.000 m/s to the east. What is the velocity of the truck right after the collision?(I found this) =20.826 (b) What is the change in mechanical energy of the car
A 1 170.0 kg car traveling initially with a speed of 25.000 m/s in an easterly direction crashes into the back of a 9 800.0 kg truck moving in the same direction at 20.000 m/s. The velocity of the car right after the collision is 18.000 m/s to the east. (a) What is the velocity of the truck right after the collision? (Give your answer to five significant figures.) m/s east (b) What is the change in mechanical energy...
A 1 230.0 kg car traveling initially with a speed of 25.000 m/s in an easterly direction crashes into the back of a 8 300.0 kg truck moving in the same direction at 20.000m/s. The velocity of the car right after the collision is 18.000 m/s to the east. a. What is the velocity of the truck right after the collision? (Give your answer to five significant figures.) b. What is the change in mechanical energy of the car–truck system...
