Question 29

H

The same resultant force of 6.0 N acts on two trolleys, X and Y, in turn.

Trolley X gains 3.0 m/s of velocity in 2.0 s.

Trolley Y gains 3.0 m/s of velocity in 4.0 s.

Which trolley has the greater inertial mass, and what is its inertial mass?

[1]

A

Trolley X, with an inertial mass of $kg4.0\ \text{kg}$

B

Trolley X, with an inertial mass of $kg8.0\ \text{kg}$

C

Trolley Y, with an inertial mass of $kg4.0\ \text{kg}$

D

Trolley Y, with an inertial mass of $kg8.0\ \text{kg}$
