a. A rail road flat car of mass M can roll without friction along a straight horizontal track . Initially, a man of mass m is standing on the car which is moving to the right with speed v_(0) . What is the change in velocity of the car if the man runs to the left so that his speed relative to the car is v_(rel) just before he jumps off at the left end? b. If there are n men each of mass m on the car, should they all run and jump off together or should they run and jump one by one in order to give a greater velocity to the car?

A railroad flatcar of mass M can roll without friction along a straight horizontal track. Initially, a man of mass 'm' is standing on the car, which is at rest. What is the velocity of the car if man runs to the left so that his speed relative to the car is v_(rel) .

A block of mass m sits at rest on a frictionless table in a rail car that is moving with speed v_(c) along a straight horizontal track (fig.) A person riding in the car pushes on the block with a net horizontal force F for a time t in the direction of the car's motion. What is the final speed of the block according to a person in the car ?
