An open train car, with a mass of 2190 kg, coasts along a horizontal track at the speed 2.17 m/s. The car passes under a loading chute and, as it does so, gravel falls vertically into it for 3.05 s at the rate of 461 kg/s. What is the car's speed after the loading is completed? Ignore rolling friction (as unrealistic as that may be) Number m/s

A 850 g cart is released from rest on a frictionless, 45 ∘ ramp, 120 cm from the bottom of the ramp. It rolls down, bounces off a rubber block at the bottom, and then rolls 80 cm back up the ramp. A high-speed video shows that the cart was in contact with the rubber block for 15 ms. What was the magnitude of the average force exerted on the cart by the block measured in newtons?
Shown below is a graph of velocity-versus-time for a moving object. The object starts at position x = 0 m at t = 0 s. What is the final position at t = 4.0 s, in meters?
A 0.400 kg hammer is moving horizontally at 4.00 m/s when it strikes a nail and comes to rest after driving it 1.00 cm into a board. (a) Calculate the duration of the impact in seconds. s (b) What was the average force in newtons exerted on the nail? N
A small (35 g) block is sliding toward the right along a table when it hits a larger (90 grams) block that was at rest. After the collision, the large block slides 72 cm to the right before coming to a rest, while the small block bounces off the large block, sliding 1.5 m to the left before stopping. The somewhat rough table has a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.42. What is the velocity of the small block just before it hits the larger block?
A 0.507-kg ball, initially moving with a speed of 3.49 m/s, bounces off a wall and then moves with a speed magnitude half of its original directed in the opposite direction. If the ball is in contact with the wall for 6.7 ms, what is the magnitude of the average force that the wall exerts on the ball? Express ans in 2decimal places, in Newtons.

A 142g baseball is moving at 17.0 m / s in the + x direction. When hit with a bat by a baseball player, its final velocity is 21.0 m / s in the -x direction. The bat acts on the ball for 6.0 x 10⁻² s. What is the magnitude of the average force exerted by the bat on the ball?
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)
Please answer question 7
A 38.0-kg boy, riding a 1.90-kg skateboard at a velocity of 5.60 m/s across a level sidewalk, jumps forward to leap over a wall. Just after leaving contact with the board, the boy's velocity relative to the sidewalk is 6.00 m/s, 9.60° above the horizontal. Ignore any friction between the skateboard and the sidewalk. What is the skateboard's velocity relative to the sidewalk at this instant? Be sure to include the correct algebraic sign with your answer.
1. A hose sprays water into a train car. The hose is fixed in place and directed along the tracks, and the train car can move along the tracks without friction. The hose sprays water at a fixed rate a ([a] =MT-1) and speed v; the mass of the empty car is M. If the train car starts empty and at rest at t = 0, what is its speed at time t?
