Question
A cart filled with sand rolls at a speed of vcart = 1.4 m/s along a horizontal path without friction. A ball of mass m = 2.6 kg is thrown with a horizontal velocity of vball = 9.8 m/s toward the cart as shown in the figure below. The ball gets stuck in the sand. What is the velocity of the cart after the ball strikes it? The mass of the cart is 14 kg. (Assume the positive xdirection is to the right. Express your answer in vector form.) ?m/s

In one particular clip, a GT player hits a home run over the center field fence. The ball leaves the bat at a height of 4 ft, and crosses the outfield fence (220 ft away) at a height of 10 ft. Logs of the game indicate that the pitch was clocked at 68 mph as it reached the plate. Your frame-by-frame analysis of the 30-frame-per-second video indicate that the ball spent only a single frame in contact with tha bat, and another 126 frames travelling to the outfield fence.
