Question
A 1.0-kg standard cart collides on a low-friction
track with cart A. The standard cart has an initial T
component of velocity of +0.40 m/s, and cart A is
initially at rest. After the collision the component
of velocity of the standard cart is +0.20 m/s and
the component of velocity of cart A is
+0.60 m/s. After the collision, cart A continues to
the end of the track and rebounds with its speed
unchanged. Before the carts collide again, you drop
a lump of putty onto cart A, where it sticks. After
the second collision, the component of velocity of
the standard cart is -0.20 m/s and the
component of velocity of cart A is +0.50 m/s.

Expert Solution
Check Mark
Step 1

Given:- 

The mass of the standard cart is m1=1.0 kg 

The initial speed of cart A is v1=0.40 m/s 

Cart A is initially at rest. 

The velocity of the standard cart after the collision is vf1=0.20 m/s 

The velocity of cart A after the collision is vfA=0.60 m/s 

The velocity of the standard cart after the second collision is vf1'= -0.20 m/s 

The velocity of the standard cart after the second collision is vfA'=+0.50 m/s 

Find:-

 The inertia of the putty?
