Answer:
1. Can change the state of an object(rest to motion/ motion to rest)
2. May change the speed of an object if it is already moving.
3. May change the direction of motion of an object.
Explanation: A force acting on an object causes the object to change its shape or size, to start moving, to stop moving, to accelerate or decelerate.
You get the net force acting on it ... the sum of the strengths and directions
of all the individual forces there may be.
Answer:
-1m/s
Explanation:
We can calculate the speed of block A after collision
According to collision theory:
MaVa+MbVb = MaVa+MbVb (after collision)
Substitute the given values
5(3)+10(0) = 5Va+10(2)
15+0 = 5Va + 20
5Va = 15-20
5Va = -5
Va = -5/5
Va = -1m/s
Hence the velocity of ball A after collision is -1m/s
Note that the velocity of block B is zero before collision since it is stationary
