2.3. A train car is sitting on a level track when a second car moves in. The second car hits the first, their hitches engage, and they move together. Both cars have equal masses of about 120 000 kg, and the second car initially has a velocity of 1.5 m/s. (a) Draw a diagram that illustrates the situation and include an arrow representing the velocity vector of the second car and a separate arrow representing ĉ, the unit vector for the coordinate system along the tracks. (b) Write vector expressions for both the velocity and momentum of the second car using at least two forms of vector notation that have been covered in class. (c) Just before the collision, what is the velocity of the center of mass of the system that includes both cars? Again, express this as a vector. (d) Just before the collision, what is the total kinetic energy of the system that includes both cars?

The mass of a regulation tennis ball is 57 g (although it can vary slightly), and tests have shown that the ball is in contact with the tennis racket for 30 ms.(This number can also vary, depending on the racket and swing.) We shall assume a 30.0 ms contact time. One of the fastest-known served tennis balls was served by “Big Bill” Tilden in 1931, and its speed was measured to be 73 m/s. Suppose that the positive direction of the x-axis is along the direction of motion of the ball after Big Bill's hit. What is the x-component of the force exerted by Big Bill on the tennis ball in his record serve? If Big Bill's opponent returned his serve with a speed of 55 m/s what is the x-component of the force he exerted on the ball, assuming only horizontal motion?
