Two carts collide and have a perfectly inelastic collision. Cart1 has a mass of 500 grams and Cart2 has a mass of 600 grams. Cart1 has an initial westward velocity of 1.6 m/s and collides
with Cart2 which was initially at rest. What is was the final velocity of the two cart system (SI
units)?

Athin, square metal plate measures 14 cm on each side and has emissivity of 0.60. the plate is heated to a temperature of 745°c. what is the rate at which the plate radiates energy ? the stefan-boltzmann constant is 5.67 × 10-8 w/(m2 ? k4). remember that the plate will radiate energy from both its top and bottom surfaces.

Acave rescue team lifts an injured spelunker directly upward and out of a sinkhole by means of a motor-driven cable. the lift is performed in three stages, each requiring a vertical distance of 11.0 m: (a) the initially stationary spelunker is accelerated to a speed of 4.80 m/s; (b) he is then lifted at the constant speed of 4.80 m/s; (c) finally he is decelerated to zero speed. how much work is done on the 78.0 kg rescue by the force lifting him during each stage
