Two carts are colliding on an airtrack (neglect friction). the first cart has a mass of m1=40 g and an initial velocity of v1=2 m/s. the second cart has a mass of m2=47 g and an initial velocity of v2=-5 m/s. two experiments are conducted. in the first experiment, the first cart has a final velocity of v1'=-1.11 m/s.
what is the velocity of the second cart?

for the second experiment, the bumpers of the carts are modified, but the carts are started with the same initial velocities as before. now the first cart has a final velocity of v1'=-3.8942 m/s, and the second cart a final velocity of v2'=0.0163 m/s.
how much (if any) energy was lost in the collision?

in good approximation, what kind of collision was the second experiment?

Which of the following statements comparing electron microscopy and light microscopy is false? which of the following statements comparing electron microscopy and light microscopy is false? both the electron microscope and the light microscope use the same wavelengths for illumination. images produced by light microscopes can be in color, whereas electron microscope images are black and white unless they are artificially colored. the electron microscope has greater resolution than the light microscope. electron microscopes can allow examination of viruses and internal cell structures, whereas light microscopes are limited to objects that are 0.5 micrometers and larger. request answer

Why does the equilibrium position of the spring change when a mass is added to the spring? will the mass oscillate around the new equilibrium position of the spring or the previous position without a mass attached to the spring? if the equilibrium position of the spring changes by 20 cm (assuming no initial mass) when a mass is added to the spring with constant 4.9 kg/s^2, what is the mass of the object attached to the spring?
