The key to solve this problem is the conservation of momentum. The momentum of an object is defined as the product between the mass and the velocity, and it's usually labelled with the letter
:

The total momentum is the sum of the momentums. The initial situation is the following:

(it's not written explicitly, but I assume that the 5-kg object is still at the beginning).
So, at the beginning, the total momentum is

At the end, we have

(the mass obviously don't change, the new velocity of the 15-kg object is 1, and the velocity of the 5-kg object is unkown)
After the impact, the total momentum is

Since the momentum is preserved, the initial and final momentum must be the same. Set an equation between the initial and final momentum and solve it for
, and you'll have the final velocity of the 5-kg object.
Answer:
The force of gravity
Explanation:
Gravity was studied, by early scientists such as Copernicus and others, Galileo was the first to ensure that planets moved according to a physical equation that depended on a force that caused celestial bodies to move and interact with each other. But years later Newton based on studies conducted deciphering what Galileo assumed, he was able to find the equation of the force of gravity in any body in the universe. This equation depends on the masses of the two interacting bodies, the distance between them and a constant, which I call universal gravitation constant.

Fg = gravity force [N]
G = universal gravitation constant = 6.67*10^(-11) [N*m^2/kg^2]
m1 = mass of the 1st body [kg]
m2 = mass of the 2nd body [kg]
r = distance between the bodies [meters]
The time it takes the plane to change its velocity is 9s.
<h3>What is time?</h3>
Time can be defined the measured or measurable period during which an action, process, or condition exists or continues.
To calculate the time it takes the airplane to change its velocity, we use the formula below.
Formula:
- t = (v-u)/a.......... Equation 1
Where:
- a = Acceleration
- v = Final velocity
- u = Initial velocity
- t = time
From the question,
- v = 40 m/s
- u = 22 m/s
- a = 2 m/s²
Substitute these values into equation 1
- t = (40-22)/2
- t = 18/2
- t = 9s
Hence, the time it takes the plane to change its velocity is 9s.

All of the electromagnetic energy radiated from the sun (and from
other stars) is the product of nuclear fusion in its core.
This seems like an incomplete question..
