stretch 38. Realizing that he could not drive up a 30°, ice-covered hill because there was no friction, Sir Isaac Newton had stopped his cart, of total mass 500 kg, at the bottom. He was struck in the rear by a London stage coach, of total mass 1500 kg. trav- elling at 20 m/s. The two vehicles stuck together, with nothing breaking loose, and slid up the hill in a straight line. How far up the slope did the wreckage get before coming to rest? (SIN '70)

A 2000 kg car is traveling East at 45 m/s while a 1500 kg car travels North at 30 m/s. They collide inelastically at an intersection, stick together and move as one to the Northeast. Assuming no other significant forces, what is the velocity of the two-car combo? v = m/s at θ = º North of East
A little fish has mass 0.400 kg and is floating motionlessly in the water, minding its own business, when a big fish (mass 2.00 kg) comes along and swallows it whole. If the big fish was gliding along at a constant velocity of 1.25 m/s before it swallowed the little fish, what will its velocity be immediately after the "collision"?

An ball bearing of mass m rolls along a horizontal rail at velocity vo and strikes a stationary ball bearing of mass M, which then recoils with a velocity v1 after a perfectly elastic collision. By considering special cases for the relative values of m and M, you can determine which of the following expressions for v1 is correct. You should not need to solve equations for the whole system. v1 = v0 M/m v1 = 2 vo m/M v1= v0 m/(m+M) v1 = 2 vo m/(m+M)
