Question

An open cart on a level surface is rolling without frictional loss through a vertical downpour of rain, as shown above. As the cart rolls, an appreciable amount of rainwater accumulate is in the cart. The speed of the cart will increase because of conservation of momentum increase because of conservation of mechanical energy decrease because of conservation of momentum decrease because of conservation of mechanical energy remain the same because the raindrops are falling perpendicular to the direction of the cart's motion

Explanation / Answer

I believe it will decrease for both mechanical and momentum. Mechanical Energy m/2v2=KE m1
