A cart filled with sand rolls at a speed of 1.0 m/s along a horizontal path without friction. A ball of mass m = 2.0 kg is thrown with a horizontal velocity of 8.0 m/s toward the cart as shown in Figure P11.79. The ball gets stuck in the sand. What is the velocity of the cart after the ball strikes it? The mass of the cart is 15 kg.

A 1.1 g pebble is stuck in a tread of a 0.74 m diameter automobile tire, held in place by static friction that can be at most 3.5 N . The car starts from rest and gradually accelerates on a straight road. How fast is the car moving when the pebble flies out of the tire tread?
Maya is an astronaut, floating in space. Their rocket is powered by throwing rocks out of a hole in the back of a spaceship. The total inertia of Maya and their rocket is 368 kg. Maya also has two 25kg rocks on board. They are initially at rest. Maya throws the first rock, and then they are moving with a velocity of 15 m/s. Then Maya throws the second rock and they are now moving with a velocity of 39 m/s.
What is the velocity of the first rock Maya threw moving through space? What is the velocity of the second?
A ball with mass mA = 2.42 g moves eastward with speed vA = 1.73 m/s. It then collides with another
ball of mass mB = 1.25 g and is moving northward with a speed vB = 2.26 m/s. After the collision,
ball A now moves at 48° north of east, while ball B moves at 17° south of east.
A. What are the speeds of the two balls after the collision?
B. Is energy lost or gained in the system? Support your answer by calculating the change in
mechanical energy of the system.
