A trolley of mass 300 ks carrying a sand bag of 25 kg is moving uniformly with a speed of `27km//h` on a frictionless track. After a while, sand starts leaking out of a hole on the trolley's floor at the rate of `0.05kgs^(-1)`. What is the speed of the trolley after the entire sand bag is empty ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

As the trolley is moving with a uniform sped . Therefore , no external force is acting on the trolley . When the sand leaks out , no external force is acting on the system Hence the speed of the trolley remains unchanged even after the sand bad becomes empty .

A (trolley + child) of total mass 200 kg is moving with a uniform speed of 36 km/h on a frictionless track. The child of mass 20 kg starts running on the trolley from one end to the other (10 m away) with a speed of 10 ms^(–1) relative to the trolley in the direction of the trolley's motion and jumps out of the trolley with the same relative velocity. What is the final speed of the trolley? How much has the trolley moved from the time the child begins to run?

A trolly of mass 200kg moves with a uniform speed of 36 km // h on a frictionless track. A child of mass 20kg runs on the trolly from one end to the other (10m away) with a speed of 4m//s relative to the trolly in a direction opposite to the trolly's motion and jumps out of the trolly. How much has teh trolly moved from the time the child begins to run ?

A monkey of mass 20 kg rides on a 40 kg trolley moving at a constant speed of 8 m/s along a horizontal track. Frictional force can be neglected.
