... 1. Train cars are coupled together by being bumped into one another. Suppose two loaded train cars are moving toward one another, the first having a mass of 150,000 kg and a velocity of 0.300 m/s, and the second having a mass of 110,000 kg and a velocity of −0.120 m/s . (The minus indicates directio ...

... 2. We are near the surface of the earth (so that the acceleration can be treated as constant) The acceleration here is called g, the acceleration due to gravity at the Earth’s surface. It has a value of 9.8 m/s2 or 32.1 ft/s2. In this course we can approximate them this as 10 m/s2 and 32 ft/s2. Star ...
