Problem 3: A cart of mass 5 kg is traveling to the right (which we will take to be the positive x-direction for this problem) at a speed of 9.4 m/s. It collides with a stationary cart that is three times as massive. After the collision, the more massive cart is moving at a speed of 1.8 m/s, to the right.
Part (a) How much momentum, in the x-direction, was transferred to the more massive cart, in kilogram meters per second?
Part (b) How much momentum, in the x-direction, was transferred to the less massive cart, in kilogram meters per second?
Part (c) What was the final momentum, in the x-direction, of the first cart, in kilogram meters per second?
Part (d) What was the final velocity, in the x-direction, of the first cart, in meters per second?
