Randall D. Knight β Impulse and Momentum: Problem 58
Ann (mass 60 kg) is standing at the left end of a 10-m-long, 400 kg cart that has frictionless wheels and rolls on a frictionless track. Initially both Ann and the cart are at rest. Suddenly, Ann starts running along the cart at a speed of 4.0 m/s relative to the cart. How far will Ann have run relative to the ground when she reaches the right end of the cart?
π Solution Approach
Given: 60 kg, 400 kg, 4.0 m
