Answer:
They collide, couple together, and roll away in the direction that <u>the 2m/s car was rolling in.</u>
Explanation:
We should start off with stating that the conservation of momentum is used here.
Momentum = mass * speed
Since, mass of both freight cars is the same, the speed determines which has more momentum.
Thus, the momentum of the 2 m/s freight car is twice that of the 1 m/s freight car.
The final speed is calculated as below:
mass * (velocity of first freight car) + mass * (velocity of second freight car) = (mass of both freight cars) * final velocity
(m * V1) + (m * V2) = (2m * V)
Let's substitute the velocities 1m/s for the first car, and - 2m/s for the second. (since the second is opposite in direction)
We get:

solving this we get:
V = - 0.5 m/s
Thus we can see that both cars will roll away in the direction that the 2 m/s car was going in. (because of the negative sign in the answer)
Your list of choices is a very short list, and doesn't include any
correct explanation.
The mass of an atom is roughly the number of protons AND neutrons
in its nucleus, but the element only depends on how many protons are there.
Different atoms of the same element may have different numbers of
neutrons, so their masses are different. But they're the same element,
because they all have the same number of protons.

Explanation:
4√((40(4046)) = 1,609.17370... = 1609 m
Telepathy duhh like when SpongeBob stared at Patrick he know they where thinking the same thing or maybe that was because they are both idiots i dont know <span />
