The equation
(option 3) represents the horizontal momentum of a 15 kg lab cart moving with a constant velocity, v, and that continues moving after a 2 kg object is dropped into it.
The horizontal momentum is given by:


Where:
- m₁: is the mass of the lab cart = 15 kg
- m₂: is the <em>mass </em>of the object dropped = 2 kg
: is the initial velocity of the<em> lab cart </em>
: is the <em>initial velocit</em>y of the <em>object </em>= 0 (it is dropped)
: is the final velocity of the<em> lab cart </em>
: is the <em>final velocity</em> of the <em>object </em>
Then, the horizontal momentum is:

When the object is dropped into the lab cart, the final velocity of the lab cart and the object <u>will be the same</u>, so:

Therefore, the equation
represents the horizontal momentum (option 3).

I hope it helps you!
I think the correct answer would be that there are a relatively small number of moles of HCl present. Dilute would mean that there are very few solute particles dissolved as compared to the solvent particles in the solution. Hope this helps.
Answer:
68.8 N
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Mass (m) of box = 18 Kg
Coefficient of friction (μ) = 0.39
Force of friction (F) =?
Next, we shall determine the normal force of the box. This is illustrated below:
Mass (m) of object = 18 Kg
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Normal force (N) =?
N = mg
N = 18 × 9.8
N = 176.4 N
Finally, we shall determine the force of friction experienced by the object. This is illustrated below:
Coefficient of friction (μ) = 0.39
Normal force (N) = 176.4 N
Force of friction (F) =?
F = μN
F = 0.39 × 176.4
F = 68.796 ≈ 68.8 N
Thus, the box experience a frictional force of 68.8 N.
Sewage. If thats not it, then I need to see your choices. :)
Inertia depends on mass, the more mass the more inertia.
