Question

2. A toy truck, with a mass of 15.0 kg travels along a level table top at +1.0 m/s. A
miniature car, with a mass of 5.0 kg, speeds headlong toward the toy truck at -0.75 m/s.
Immediately after the collision, the 15.0 kg toy truck continues in its original direction at
+0.13 m/s. What is the velocity of the 5.0 kg miniature car after the collision?
Before
After

Expert Solution

Step 1

Given,

initial velocity of toy truck with mass 15.0kg , $v_{i n i t i a l, t r u c k} = + 1.0 m / s$

initial velocity of car with mass 5.0kg , $v_{i n i t i a l, c a r} = - 0.75 m / s$

final velocity of toy car , $v_{f i n a l, c a r} = + 0.13 m / s$

$m_{t r u c k} = 15.0 k g, m_{c a r} = 5.0 k g$

momentum = mass $\times v e l o c i t y$

Momentum will remains conserved , so initial momentum = final momentum
