A cart of mass 50 kg is moving on a straight track with a speed of 12m/s. a mass of 10 kg is gently put into the cart . what willl be the velocity of the cart after this?
mass of car = 50kg
Speed = 12 m/s
After putting 10 kg mass,
Mass of car = 60kg
Let velocity be X
Since, momentum before collision = momentum after collision
50*12 = 60x
= 60x = 50*12
= X = 50*12/60
So, X = 10 m/s
