The velocity of pluck 1 is 12 m/s west.

<h3>What is the conservation of momentum?</h3>

The principle of the conservation of the linear momentum states that momentum before collision is equal to momentum after collision.

Now given that;

m1u1 + m2u2 = m1v1 + m2v2

(0.1 * 15) - (0.1 * 12) = 0.1* v + (0.1 * 15)

1.5 - 1.2 = 0.1v + 1.5

0.3 - 1.5 = 0.1v

v = -1.2/0.1

v = - 12 m/s

Hence, the velocity of pluck 1 is 12 m/s west.

A 3.1-kilogram gun initially at rest is free to

34kurt

The conservation of momentum states that the total momentum in a system is constant if there is no external force acting on the system. The total momentum in the gun bullet system is 0 so it must stay that way.

The momentum of the bullet is mv = 0.015*500=7.5
The momentum of the gun must be the same to keep the total momentum of the system equal to zero, so we know that p = 7.5 for the gun.
Substituting this in we get:

7.5=3.1x
x=7.5/3.1
x=2.42

So the speed of the gun is 2.4m/s.

Which object has the most gravitational potential energy?

Kipish [7]

Answer: An 8 kg book at a height of 3 m has the most gravitational potential energy.

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is the product of mass of object, height of object and gravitational field.

So, formula to calculate gravitational potential energy is as follows.

U = mgh

where,

m = mass of object

g = gravitational field = $9.81 m/s^{2}$

h = height of object

(A) m = 5 kg and h = 2m

Therefore, its gravitational potential energy is calculated as follows.

$U = mgh\\= 5 kg \times 9.81 m/s^{2} \times 2 m\\= 98.1 J (1 J = kg m^{2}/s^{2})$

(B) m = 8 kg and h = 2 m

Therefore, its gravitational potential energy is calculated as follows.

$U = mgh\\= 8 kg \times 9.81 m/s^{2} \times 2 m\\= 156.96 J (1 J = kg m^{2}/s^{2})$

(C) m = 8 kg and h = 3 m

Therefore, its gravitational potential energy is calculated as follows.

$U = mgh\\= 8 kg \times 9.81 m/s^{2} \times 3 m\\= 235.44 J (1 J = kg m^{2}/s^{2})$

(D) m = 5 kg and h = 3 m

Therefore, its gravitational potential energy is calculated as follows.

$U = mgh\\= 5 kg \times 9.81 m/s^{2} \times 3 m\\= 147.15 J (1 J = kg m^{2}/s^{2})$

Thus, we can conclude that an 8 kg book at a height of 3 m has the most gravitational potential energy.
