A 2.4-kg cart is rolling along a frictionless, horizontal track towards a 1.2-kg cart that is held initially at rest. The carts are loaded with strong magnets that cause them to attract one another. Thus, the speed of each cart increases. At a certain instant before the carts collide, the first cart's velocity is +3.5 m/s, and the second cart's velocity is -1.4 m/s. (a) What is the total momentum of the system of the two carts at this instant? (b) What was the velocity of the first cart when the second cart was still at rest?

Two carts are rolling to the right along the same level track. Cart 1, with a mass m1 = 3.4 kg, is in the rear, rolling at a speed of 6.2 m/s and catching up to cart 2, which is rolling at a speed of 3.2 m/s. Choose signs carefully; only speeds are given. a) Cart 1 overtakes and collides with cart 2, sticking to it (both have Velcro pads). Afterward, they both continue rolling right, now at a speed...

A 1.0-kg standard cart collides on a low-friction track with cart A. The standard cart has an initial x component of velocity of +0.40 m/s, and cart A is initially at rest. After the collision the x component of velocity of the standard cart is +0.20 m/s and the x component of velocity of cart A is +0.65 m/s . After the collision, cart A continues to the end of the track and rebounds with its speed unchanged. Before the...

Two carts are sitting on air track (frictionless surface). Assume cart A has mass of .50 kg, cart B has mass of 1.0 kg. You push cart A and give it an initial speed of 5.0 m/s toward B which was originally at rest. The two carts stick together and move together. Right after collision, the air is turned off so the two carts slide to a stop due to kinetic friction. Assume the coefficient of kinetic friction is .20....
