Freight car A with a gross weight
of 160000 lb is moving along the horizontal track in a
switching yard at 2.8 mi/hr. Freight
car B with a gross weight of 158000 lb
and moving at 3.6 mi/hr overtakes
car A and is coupled to it. Determine
(a) the common velocity V of the two
cars as they move together after being coupled and (b) the
loss of energy |ΔE| due to the impact.
