Answer:
a = F/m
Explanation:
So we have to isolate a, in order to do this we need to move m to the other side, and we do that by diving both sides by m, resulting in a = F/m
The answer is ; white dwarfs are warmer and have lower luminosity than supergiants
The reason white dwarfs have lower luminosity is that they are way smaller in size than supergiants, even though their temperatures are way higher in comparison.
White dwarfs and red giants are formed when the hydrogen fuel at the core of the stars is exhausted. When the star is 1 to 10 solar masses of the sun, then it forms a red giant.
PART a)
Momentum is defined as product of mass and velocity
so here initial momentum is

given that
m = 0.3 kg
v = 18 m/s

towards East
Part b)
Since puck was initially at rest so here initial momentum must be ZERO
so here to find the force we can use

so here we have
time interval = 0.25 s
now from above equation


Part c)
Due to friction the puck lose its speed by 5 m/s
final speed = 18 - 5 = 13 m/s
mass = 0.3 kg
final momentum = (0.3)(13) = 3.9 kg m/s
now the impulse due to friction force is given as


Part d)
initial momentum of block will be ZERO as it is placed at rest
Initial momentum of the puck is given as

so total momentum before collision is given as

Part e)
since the system is isolated and there is no external force on it
So here momentum will remain conserved
so here we have




so final combined speed will be 2.6 m/s
