A 2.0\, \text {kg}2.0kg2, point, 0, start text, k, g, end text cart moving right at 5.0\,\dfrac{\text m}{\text s}5.0 s m ​ 5, point, 0, start fraction, start text, m, end text, divided by, start text, s, end text, end fraction on a frictionless track collides with a 3.0\,\text {kg}3.0kg3, point, 0, start text, k, g, end text cart initially at rest. The 2.0\, \text {kg}2.0kg2, point, 0, start text, k, g, end text cart has a final speed of 1.0\,\dfrac{\text m}{\text s}1.0 s m ​ 1, point, 0, start fraction, start text, m, end text, divided by, start text, s, end text, end fraction to the left. What is the final speed of the 3.0\,\text {kg}3.0kg3, point, 0, start text, k, g, end text cart?

.20

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are no net external forces on the carts, momentum is conserved during the collision. Let’s define the 2.0\, \text {kg}2.0kg2, point, 0, start text, k, g, end text cart as object 111 and the 3.0\,\text {kg}3.0kg3, point, 0, start text, k, g, end text cart as object 222.

\begin{aligned}p_i &= p_f m_1 v_{1i} + m_2 v_{2i} &= (m_1 + m_2) v_{f} \end{aligned}

Hint #22 / 3

Rearranging to solve for the final velocity of the carts gives:

\begin{aligned} v_f &= \dfrac{m_1 v_{1i} + m_2v_{2i}}{m_1+m_2}\\ \\ &= \dfrac{(2.0\, \text {kg})\left (5.0\,\dfrac{\text m}{\text s}\right ) + (3.0\, \text {kg})\left (-3.0\,\dfrac{\text m}{\text s}\right )}{2.0\,\text {kg}+3.0\,\text {kg}}\\ \\ &= 0.20\,\dfrac{\text m}{\text s}\end{aligned}
