High-speed stroboscopic photographs show that the head of a golf club of mass 200 grams is traveling at 55.0 m/s just before it strikes a 46.0-gram golf ball at rest on a tee. After the collision, the clubhead travels (in the same direction) at 40.0 m/s. Find the speed of the golf ball just after impact


65.2 m/s

A locomotive is pulling 9 freight cars, each of which is loaded with the same weight. The mass of each loaded car is 37000kg and we can neglect friction on these 9 cars. If the train is accelerating forward at 0

81m/s2 on a level track, what is the tension in the coupling between the second and third cars? (The car nearest the locomotive is counted as the first car.)
