Acceleration is the rate at which an object changes its velocity. It defines how much the velocity is changing. The acceleration can be negative and positive. Negative acceleration is when the object slows down, while positive while the object goes faster.

Answer:
a) -41.1 Joule
b) 108.38 Kelvin
Explanation:
Pressure = P = 290 Pa
Initial volume of gas = V₁ = 0.62 m³
Final volume of gas = V₂ = 0.21 m³
Initial temperature of gas = T₁ = 320 K
Heat loss = Q = -160 J
Work done = PΔV
⇒Work done = 290×(0.21-0.62)
⇒Work done = -118.9 J
a) Change in internal energy = Heat - Work
ΔU = -160 -(-118.9)
⇒ΔU = -41.1 J
∴ Change in internal energy is -41.1 J
b) V₁/V₂ = T₁/T₂
⇒T₂ = T₁V₂/V₁
⇒T₂ = 320×0.21/0.62
⇒T₂ = 108.38 K
∴ Final temperature of the gas is 108.38 Kelvin
Think about it like this, the more mass there is, the faster its going to go. If you took a golf ball and a ping pong ball and you held them each separately, you would notice that the golf ball is heavier. If they move with the same kinetic energy, but the golf ball WEIGHS more, then the golf ball will have the greater speed. If you think about it, the ping pong ball may be taking its time to get to wherever its going.
Answer:
The distance covered by puck A before collision is 
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The label on the two hockey pucks is A and B
The distance between the two hockey pucks is D 18.0 m
The speed of puck A is 
The speed of puck B is 
The distance covered by puck A is mathematically represented as

=> 
The distance covered by puck B is mathematically represented as

=> 
Since the time take before collision is the same

substituting values

=> 
=>
