Question
A cart of mass 5 kg is held on the ramp at a height
of 2.5 m. Another cart of mass 5 kg is on a
frictionless surface sitting next to a spring with
spring constant 158 N/m. At some instant, the
first cart starts sliding down and hits the second
cart. If the collision between the carts is elastic in
nature, find the compression in the spring caused
by the second cart. [limit your answers within one
decimal places).
