n assembling a train from several railroad cars, two of the cars, with masses 2.0 x 104 kg and 4.0x 104 kg are rolled toward each other. When they meet, they couple and stick together. The lighter car has an initial speed of 1.5 m/s; the collision causes it to reverse direction at 0.25 m/s. What was the initial speed of the heavier car (ANS -1.1

Arunner is jogging at a steady 3.6 km/hr. when the runner is 2.9 km from the finish line, a bird begins flying from the runner to the finish line at 14.4 km/hr (4 times as fast as the runner). when the bird reaches the finish line, it turns around and flies back to the runner. even though the bird is a dodo, we will assume that it occupies only one point in space, i.e., a zero-length bird. how far does the bird travel? (b) after this first encounter, the bird then turns around and flies from the runner back to the finish line, turns around again and flies back to the runner. the bird repeats the back and forth trips until the runner reaches the finish line. how far does the bird travel from the beginning? (i.e. include the distance traveled to the first encounter)
