What are the speed and direction of the larger cart

Reference no: EM13310861

if a 0.5kg cart and a 2.0 kg cart is attached and are rolling forward with a speed of 2.0 m/s. suddenly the spring-loaded coupling triggers and blows the two carts apart from each other. the smaller cart shoots backward at 2.0 m/s. using conservation of momentum, what are the speed and direction of the larger cart?
