A 2.7-kg cart is rolling along a frictionless, horizontal track towards a 1.4-kg cart that is held initially at rest. The carts are loaded with strong magnets that cause them to attract one another. Thus, the speed of each cart increases. At a certain instant before the carts collide, the first cart's velocity is +5.2 m/s, and the second cart's velocity is -2.2 m/s.
(a) What is the total momentum of the system of the two carts at this instant?
(b) What was the velocity of the first cart when the second cart was still at rest?

Materials will have different energies associated with the electrons inside them. this is related to how strongly bound they are by their work function. if we sandwich a material with a very low energy between two materials with a high energy, we create a trap for an electron. if this trap is very narrow in one direction in comparison to the others, this is approximately a 1-dimensional box that confines the electron. what is the lowest energy of an electron in the box if the thinnest direction across the materials is 4.81 nm?
