When cars are equipped with flexible bumpers, they will bounce off each other during low-speed collisions, thus causing less damage. In one such accident, a 1850 kg car traveling to the right at 1.50 m/s collides with a 1400 kg car going to the left at 1.10 m/s . Measurements show that the heavier car's speed just after the collision was 0.250 m/s in its original direction. You can ignore any road friction during the collision.

What was the speed of the lighter car just after the collision?

Consider the particle-in-a-box problem in 1d. a particle with mass m is confined to move freely between two hard walls situated at x = 0 and x = l. the potential energy function is given as (a) describe the boundary conditions that must be satisfied by the wavefunctions ψ(x) (such as energy eigenfunctions). (b) solve the schr¨odinger’s equation and by using the boundary conditions of part (a) find all energy eigenfunctions, ψn(x), and the corresponding energies, en. (c) what are the allowed values of the quantum number n above? how did you decide on that? (d) what is the de broglie wavelength for the ground state? (e) sketch a plot of the lowest 3 levels’ wavefunctions (ψn(x) vs x). don’t forget to mark the positions of the walls on the graphs. (f) in a transition between the energy levels above, which transition produces the longest wavelength λ for the emitted photon? what is the corresponding wavele

Agroup of students were investigating the force of gravity. they began by dropping a foam ball from a height of 3 meters into a bucket of sand. the ball hit the sand in 0.306 seconds. they dropped additional balls of approximately the same diameter, but of different masses. here is the data they collected. based on this experiment and the collected data, what would their conclusion be?
