Accepted Answer

$$x = 0$$

Question 12

A 4 kg block slides towards a 2 kg block at 6 m/s and hits it elastically. The 2 kg block is initially at rest. What is the velocity of the 2 kg block after the collision?

Accepted Answer

$$v = \frac{2m_2}{m_1$ + m_2$}v_{1i}$$

Question 13

A refrigerator removes 400 J of heat from inside and exhausts 600 J to the room. How much work does it consume?

Accepted Answer

$$W = Q_{out} - Q_{in}$$

Question 14

A cart of mass $$m$$ enters a vertical loop of radius $$R. $$What is the minimum speed at the top to stay in contact with the track?

A diver plate of mass 12 kg breaks into three pieces. One piece of mass 2 kg moves east at 3 m/s, another of mass 10 kg moves north at 2 m/s. What is the velocity of the third piece?

Accepted Answer

Use conservation of momentum: $$\vec{p}_A + \vec{p}_B + \vec{p}_C = 0$$

Question 17
