- A dump truck is being filled with sand. The sand falls straight downward from rest from a height of 1.06 m above the truck bed, and the mass of sand that hits the truck per second is 62.4 kg/s. The truck is parked on the platform of a weight scale. By how much does the scale reading exceed the weight of the truck and sand?

Each railcar has a mass of 18 kg. Ellen and her younger brother Tim are seated in two of these railcars, which are initially at rest with the rubber buffers just touching each other. Ellen's mass is 42 kg, while Tim's mass is 32 kg. Ellen pushes Tim's railcar so that it moves away with a speed of 3.0 m/s relative to the track. Assuming that the frictional forces on the railcars are small, how far the railcars will have travelled after 2.0 s?arrow_forward
