Given:
Mass of the rail road car, m = 2 kg
velocity of the three cars coupled system, v' = 1.20 m/s
velocity of first car, = 3 m/s
Solution:
a) Momentum of a body of mass 'm' and velocity 'v' is given by:
p = mv
Now for the coupled system according to law of conservation of momentum, total momentum of a system before and after collision remain conserved:
(1)
where,
= velocity of the first car
= velocity of the 2 coupled cars after collision
Now, from eqn (1)
v' = 1.80 m/s
Therefore, the velocity of the combined car system after collision is 1.80 m/s
