3/214 Two barges, each with a displacement (mass) of 500 Mg, are loosely moored in calm water. A stunt driver starts his 1500-kg car from rest at A, drives along the deck, and leaves the end of the 15° ramp at a speed of 50 km/h relative to the barge and ramp. The driver successfully jumps the gap and brings his car to rest relative to barge 2 at B. Cal- culate the velocity vz imparted to barge 2 just after the car has come to rest on the barge. Neglect the resistance of the water to motion at the low veloci- ties involved. 15° 2 Problem 3/214 3/214 Two barges, each with a displacement (mass) of 500 Mg, are loosely moored in calm water.
