In a classroom demonstration, two students of equal-mass stand on skateboards facing each other and initially at rest. Student A gives Student B a hard, quick push horizontally. Which of the following statements describes the resulting motion of the two carts? Assume the students do not fall off their skateboards.

Student A will remain stationary; student B will be propelled rightward.

Student A will move backwards slightly; student B will move rightward with a large momentum.

Student A will move backward with large momentum; student B will move to the right slightly.

Student A and student B will move away from each other with the same speed.

MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

Two carts with masses of 0.5 kg and 1.0 kg are positioned next to one another on a low-friction track. A spring-loaded plunger is released, forcing the carts away from one another in an explosion. How does the force acting upon the 0.5-kg cart compare to the force that acts upon the 1.0-kg cart?

Both carts experience the same force.

The force on the 0.5-kg cart is one-half the magnitude of the force on the 1.0-kg cart.

The force on the 0.5-kg cart is one-quarter the magnitude of the force on the 1.0-kg cart.

The force on the 0.5-kg cart is twice the magnitude of the force on the 1.0-kg cart.

Two carts with a mass of 0.5-kg are positioned next to one another on a low-friction track. A spring-loaded plunger is released, propelling the carts away from one another in an explosion. The cart on the left begins moving with a speed of 40 cm/s. With what speed will the cart on the right begin moving?

20 cm/s

40 cm/s

80 cm/s

It is impossible to predict with so little information.
