Meriam, Kraige & Bolton β Kinetics of Systems of Particles: Problem 4_72
4/72 A coal car with an empty mass of 25 Mg is moving freely with a speed of 1.2 m/s under a hopper which opens and releases coal into the moving car at the constant rate of 4 Mg per second. Determine the distance \( x \) moved by the car during the time that 32 Mg of coal are deposited in the car. Neglect any frictional resistance to rolling along the horizontal track.
