- | A cart is given a slight push along a near frictionless track (as shown in the video below). After the push, the cart is observed to move with a near constant velocity →vcart=⟨1.2,0,0⟩ms. Determine its location after 3 seconds. | + | A cart is given a slight push along a near frictionless track (as shown in the video below). |
