The speed of cart b is 6m/s while the total momentum of the systmen is 4200 kg m/s
<h3>Conservation of Linear Momentum</h3>
Given Data
- Mass of cart one M1 = 150kg
- Initial Velocity U1 = 8m/s
Mass of cart two M2 = 150kg
Velocity U2 = 6m/s
Applying the principle of conservation of linear momentum we have
M1U1+M2U2 = M1V1+ M2V2
a. what is the speed of cart b after collision
substituting our given data we have
150*8+ 150*6 = 150*5+150*V2
1200 + 900 = 1200+ 150V2
2100 - 1200 = 150V2
900 = 150V2
Divide both sides by 150
V2 = 900/150
V2 = 6m/s
b. what is the total momentum of the system before and after collision
Total Momentum in the system is
Total momentum = Momentum before Impact+ Momentum after Impact
Total momentum = M1U1+M2U2 + M1V1+ M2V2
Total momentum = 1200 + 900 + 1200+ 900
Total momentum = 4200 kg m/s

Answer:
<h2>
d₂ = 3d</h2><h2>
The diameter of the second wire is 3 times that of the initial wire.</h2>
Explanation:
Using the formula for calculating the resistivity of an object to find the diameter.
Resistivity P = RA/L
R is the resistance of the material
A is the cross sectional area
L is the length of the material
Since A = πd²/4
P = R( πd²/4)/L
P = Rπd²/4L ... 1
If the second wire of the same material and length is found to have resistance R/9, the resistivity of the second material will be;
P₂ = (R/9)A₂/L₂
P₂ = (R/9)(πd₂²/4)/L₂
P₂ = (Rπd₂²/36)/L₂
P₂ = (Rπd₂²)/36L₂
Since the length and resistivity are the same;
P = P₂ and L =L₂
Equating 1 and 2;
Rπd²/4L = (Rπd₂²)/36L₂
Rπd²/4L = (Rπd₂²)/36L
d² = d₂²/9
d₂² = 9d²
Taking the square root of both sides;
√d₂² = √9d²
d₂ = 3d
Therefore the diameter of the second wire is 3 times that of the initial wire
