A train car with mass m1 = 515 kg is moving to the right with a speed of v1 = 7.5 m/s and collides with a second train car. The

Anna [14]

Answer:

For the first situation, we first need to find the mass of the second train car.

In order to do that, we apply the conservation of the amount of movement:

$515*7.5+m2*0=(m1+m2)*4.8$

and we have as a result:

m2 = 289.6875

For the second situation, also we will apply the conservation of the amount of movement:

$515*7.5-289.6875*6 = (515+289.6875)*V$

and we have as a result:

V = 2.64 (it is moving to the right)
