A large mass collides with a stationary, smaller mass. How will the masses behave if the collision is inelastic?

Logically both masses will collide and well make a reaction. first of all depending on the small mass it will either merge or unite with the big mass or it will bounce away from it . if this happen it will make a reaction that will affect both masses. Hope this helps if it is incorrect please let me know :)

What happens in the process of gravitational condensation?
Lerok [7]

Answer:

An object decreases in size due to the collision of materials. An object increases in size due to the addition of materials. Gas particles are formed from solar nebula materials.

I have a voltage source of 12V but a light that only burns at 5V. The lamp works on 18 mA. Calculate the resistance that you EXT
ratelena [41]

Answer:

The resistance that will provide this potential drop is 388.89 ohms.

Explanation:

Given;

Voltage source, E = 12 V

Voltage rating of the lamp, V = 5 V

Current through the lamp, I = 18 mA

Extra voltage or potential drop, IR =  E- V  

                                                    IR = 12 V - 5 V = 7 V

The resistance that will provide this potential drop (7 V) is calculated as follows:

IR = V

R = \frac{V}{I} = \frac{7 \ V}{18 \times 10^{-3} A} \ = 388.89 \ ohms

Therefore, the resistance that will provide this potential drop is 388.89 ohms.

In a two-body collision, if the momentum of the system is conserved, then which of the
lakkis [162]

Answer:

c) may also be conserved

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved  in both elastic and inelastic type of collisions.

But the differences is that:

In an ELASTIC type of collisions, KINETIC ENERGY IS ALSO CONSERVED.

whereas, In an INELASTIC type of collision, KINETIC ENERGY IS NOT CONSERVED.

So unless until type of collision is specified, we can not say anything about the conservation of kinetic energy after collision.

Hence, may also be conserved is the appropriate option here.
