    Set 14/10
    Due 18/10
    1. A bumper car of mass 100 kg with a driver of mass 50 kg moves at a steady velocity of +2 m/s. It bumps into an unoccupied stationary bumper car and gets ‘locked’ so that they both now move in the same direction as the original car. Assuming the bumper cars are of the same mass, what velocity are they both now moving at?
    2. A bullet of mass 0.005 kg speeds through the air at a velocity of +444 m/s. It hits a wooden ‘brick’ of mass 0.5 kg, which is resting on ice. The bullet gets stuck in the block. What is the final velocity of the wooden block and bullet?
