Question
An open train car, with a mass of 2050 kg, coasts along a horizontal track at the speed 2.792.79 m/s. The car passes under a loading chute and, as it does so, gravel falls vertically into it for 2.792.79 s at the rate of 475 kg/s. What is the car's speed vf after the loading is completed? Ignore rolling friction.

- In a softball game, a 0.200 kg softball traveling at 12.0 m/s at an angle of 50.00 below the horizontal is hit by a batter. Just after the hit, the ball is traveling at 45.0 m/s at an angle of 35.00 above the horizontal. Video shows the collision time between the bat and ball was 25.0 ms. Determine the magnitude of the force exerted on the ball by the bat.arrow_forwardA mine car, whose mass is m1 = 441 kg, rolls at a speed of v1 = 0.517 m/s on a horizontal track, as the drawing below shows.
