Question

D-A6 kg cart moving at 2 m/s hits another car that has a mass of 3 kg. What is the velocity of the second car after impact?(Use the conservation of momentum equation)

Answer 1

The conservation of momentum states that the total intiial momentum is equal to the total final momentum. In this cae this will mean that:

`p_(1i)+p_(2i)=p_(1f)+p_(2f)`
