The velocity of the red cart after the collision is 2 m/s
From the law of conservation of momentum, initial momentum of system = final momentum of system.
m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = m₁v₃ + m₂v₄ where m₁ = mass of red cart = 4 kg, v₁ = velocity of red cart before collision = + 4 m/s, v₃ = velocity of red cart after collision, m₂ = mass of blue cart = 1 kg, v₂ = velocity of blue cart before collision = 0 m/s (since it is initially at rest) and v₄ = velocity of blue cart after collision = + 8 m/s.
Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have,
m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = m₁v₃ + m₂v₄
4 kg × 4 m/s + 1 kg × 0 m/s = 4v₃ + 1 kg × 8 m/s
16 kgm/s + 0 kgm/s = 4v₃ + 8 kgm/s
16 kgm/s = 4v₃ + 8 kgm/s
16 kgm/s - 8 kgm/s = (4 kg)v₃
(4 kg)v₃ = 8 kgm/s
Divide both sides by 4 kg, we have
v₃ = 8 kgm/s ÷ 4 kg
v₃ = 2 m/s
The velocity of the red cart after the collision is 2 m/s.

Answer:
The height of the water above the hole in the tank is 58 mm
Explanation:
In order to solve this problem we need to draw a sketch of the dimensions that include the input variables of the problem.
Where:
x = 0.579[m]
y = 1.45 [m]
Using the following kinematic equation we can find the time that takes the water to hit the ground, and then with this time, we can find the velocity of the water in the x-component.
It is necessary to clarify the value of each of the respective variables below
y = - 1.45 [m] "It is negative because this point is below the water outlet"
yo = 0
vo = 0 "The velocity is zero because the component of the speed on the Y-axis does not exist"
therefore:
![-1.45=0.5*(-9.81)*t^{2} \\t = \sqrt{\frac{1.45}{0.5*9.81} } \\t = 0.543[s]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-1.45%3D0.5%2A%28-9.81%29%2At%5E%7B2%7D%20%5C%5Ct%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%7B%5Cfrac%7B1.45%7D%7B0.5%2A9.81%7D%20%7D%20%5C%5Ct%20%3D%200.543%5Bs%5D)
The next step is to determine the velocity in component x, knowing the time.
![v=\frac{x}{t} \\v=\frac{0.579}{.543} \\v = 1.06[m/s]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=v%3D%5Cfrac%7Bx%7D%7Bt%7D%20%5C%5Cv%3D%5Cfrac%7B0.579%7D%7B.543%7D%20%5C%5Cv%20%3D%201.06%5Bm%2Fs%5D)
Now using torricelli's law we can find the elevation.
![v=\sqrt{2*g*h} \\h=\frac{v^{2} }{2*g} \\h=\frac{1.06^{2} }{2*9.81} \\h= 0.057[m] = 57.95[mm]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=v%3D%5Csqrt%7B2%2Ag%2Ah%7D%20%5C%5Ch%3D%5Cfrac%7Bv%5E%7B2%7D%20%7D%7B2%2Ag%7D%20%5C%5Ch%3D%5Cfrac%7B1.06%5E%7B2%7D%20%7D%7B2%2A9.81%7D%20%5C%5Ch%3D%200.057%5Bm%5D%20%3D%2057.95%5Bmm%5D)
Answer:
<u>B. East of NYC</u>
Explanation:
We can make this conclusion because for one reason New York City is the Northern Hemisphere, and according to the Coriolis effect <em>when objects in the Northern Hemisphere travel long distances above the ground, </em><em>they will be deflected to the right </em>as a result of earth's rotation.
Hence, going by the map of New York on the Northern Hemisphere, <em>when the (object) flight is deflected to the right, for someone in NYC it will indicate a </em><em>shift to the east of NYC</em><em> </em>since the pilot failed to take the Coriolis Effect into account.
