You are at a train yard observing trains (because why not). You see a train car (let's call it car 1) moving to the right ( x direction) towards a stationary train car (let's call this one car 2). Car 1 has an initial velocity of 15.0 m/s. A helpful train employee tells you that Car 1 also has a mass of 1,825 kg and Car 2 has a mass of 2,645 kg. Car 1 gently collides with Car 2, allowing them to connect. After the collision the two train cars stay connected. You can assume that there is no friction in the system. If you have never see train cars connect, you can watch the first 25ish seconds of this video to see two train cars couple. However, these cars have friction, so they stop - unlike our problem. What is the Final Velocity of the system consisting of Car 1 and Car 2

Electric field of the earth. the earth has a net electric charge that causes a field at points near its surface equal to 150 n> c and directed in toward the center of the earth. (a) what magnitude and sign of charge would a 60-kg human have to acquire to overcome his or her weight by the force exerted by the earth’s electric field? (b) what would be the force of repulsion between two people each with the charge calculated in part (a) and separated by a distance of 100 m? is use of the earth’s electric field a feasible means of flight? why or why not?
