A trolley of mass 0.75kg is running along a frictionless track at a constant speed of 0.7ms-1, as the trolley passes below a mass of 0.5kg the mass drops a short vertical distance onto the trolley. Calculate the new velocity of the trolley and mass.

Momentum = mass x velocityInitial momentum = 0.75 x 0.7 =0.525kgms-1Momentum is assumed conserved so final momentum = 0.525kgms-1So final mass = 0.5+0.75 = 1.25kgSo final velocity = 0.525/1.25Final veloci...

Using the substitution x = 2cosu, find the integral of dx/((x^2)(4-x^2)^1/2), evaluated between x=1 and x=sqrt(2).

Starting with x=2cosu, rearrange for u to get u=arccos(x/2), then find the upper and lower limits of the integral. We find that our lower limit goes from 1 to pi/3, ad our upper limit goes from root 2 to ...
