Two carts (m1 = m2 = 0.400 kg) are placed on an aluminum track. the first cart is pushed with the initial velocity of 1.5 m/s towards the second cart, which remains at rest until the collision. determine the velocities of both carts after the collision. (5)
v1 = m/s, v2 = m/s,

In order of decreasing light-transmitting capabilities of materials, which is the correct sequence? a. transparent -> translucent -> opaque b. opaque -> transparent -> translucent c. opaque -> translucent -> transparent d. translucent -> transparent -> opaque

The experiment done in lab is repeated, using a ball that has unknown mass m. you plot your data in the form of f 2 versus m/l, with f in rev/s, m in kg, and l in m. your data falls close to a straight line that has slope 3.19 m/(kg · s2). use g = 9.80 m/s2 and calculate the mass m of the ball.

It may seem strange that the selected velocity does not depend on either the mass or the charge of the particle. (for example, would the velocity of a neutral particle be selected by passage through this device? ) the explanation of this is that the mass and the charge control the resolution of the device--particles with the wrong velocity will be accelerated away from the straight line and will not pass through the exit slit. if the acceleration depends strongly on the velocity, then particles with just slightly wrong velocities will feel a substantial transverse acceleration and will not exit the selector. because the acc
