A hockey puck is set in motion across a frozen pond. If ice friction and air resistance are neglected, the force required to keep the puck sliding at constant velocity is

I hope you have found this class useful in at least a few ways and learned some concepts you can take away with you.  Thanks for being a part of this class this semester!  Choose the right answer below for a little boost on your exam.

Suppose that a single freight car is moving along at a speed of v = 10 m/s and collides with a cart which is sitting still. Assuming that the carts have the same mass (m), and assuming that the collision is perfectly inelastic, how fast will the coupled carts (which have stuck together) travel after the collision?
