Transcribed Image Text:A 0.600-kg ball traveling 4.00 m/s to the right collides with a 1.00-kg ball travel-
ing 5.00 m/s to the left. After the collision, the lighter ball is traveling 7.25 m/s to
the left. What is the velocity of the heavier ball after the collision?
A 90.0-g disk traveling 3.00 m/s to the right collides with a 75.0-g disk traveling
8.00 m/s to the left. After the collision, the heavier disk is traveling 7.00 m/s to
the left. What is the velocity of the lighter disk after the collision?
A 98.0-kg parts cart with rubber bumpers rolling 1.20 m/s to the right crashes
into a similar cart of mass 125 kg moving left at 0.750 m/s. After the collision,
the lighter cart is traveling 0.986 m/s to the left. What is the velocity of the
heavier cart after the collision?

A 75.0-kg paint cart with rubber bumpers is rolling 0.965 m/s to the right and
strikes a second cart of mass 85.0 kg moving 1.30 m/s to the left. After the col-
lision, the heavier cart is traveling 0.823 m/s to the right. What is the velocity of
the lighter cart after the collision?
A railroad car of mass 2.00 X 104 kg is traveling north 6.00 m/s and collides with
a railroad car of mass 1.50 x 10 kg traveling south 4.00 m/s. Find the velocity
of the railroad cars that become coupled after the collision.
