D. velocity includes rate of change and direction
KE= 1/2 mv^2
Kinetic Energy is equal to 1/2 x mass x velocity squared
The mass of the larger ball has TWICE
the kinetic energy. KE is directly proportional to the mass.
Answer:
the total momentum is 8 .2 kg m/s in north direction.
Explanation:
given,
mass(m₁) 3.00 kg, moving north at v₁ = 3.00 m/s
mass(m₂) 4.00 kg, moving south at v₂ = 3.70 m/s
mass(m₃) 7.00 kg, moving north at v₃ = 2.00 m/s
north as the positive axis
south as the negative axis
now
total momentum = m₁v₁ + m₂ v₂ + m₃ v₃
total momentum = 3 x 3 - 4 x 3.7 + 7 x 2
= 9 - 14.8 + 14
= 8 .2 kg m/s
hence, the total momentum is 8 .2 kg m/s in north direction.
