Problem

A 2.0 kg2.0\,\text{kg} cart moves 3.0 m/s3.0\,\text{m/s} to the right on a frictionless track. It then enters a region where a horizontal force acts as follows: • +6 N+6\,\text N (to the right) for 1.0 s1.0\,\text s • −4 N-4\,\text N (to the left) for 3.0 s3.0\,\text s What is the cart’s velocity when it leaves the region 4.0 s4.0\,\text s after entering? a) 3.0 m/s3.0\,\text{m/s} to the right b) 7.0 m/s7.0\,\text{m/s} to the right c) 0.0 m/s0.0\,\text{m/s} d) 3.0 m/s3.0\,\text{m/s} to the left
