Two carts collide and bounce off of each other. Cart A is 3.0 kg and cart B is 5.0 kg. Before the collision, art A is moving to the right at 1.0 m/s and cart B is moving to the left at 2.0 m/s. After the collision, cart A is moving to the left at 1.0 m/s. What is the velocity for cart B after the collision?

0.8 m/s to the left

A massive, frictionless cylindrical pulley (a disk) is hanging in the middle of the room. It has a mass of 8.7 kg and a radius of 0.3 m. The pulley is originally at rest. You grab a massless, no stretchable rope wrapped multiple times around the pulley, and pull with a constant force of 9.7 N in line with the rope. You pull the rope 5.0 m down, starting with no slack in the rope.

  • What is the angular displacement of the pulley caused by pulling the rope?

16.67 rad
