This follows the law of conservation of momentum. Momentum is the product of mass and velocity of object.
Momentum = mass(m) x velocity(v)
law of conservation of momentum means that the total momentum of system before the collision of 2 objects is equal to the total momentum after the collision
Before the collision total momentum
= m1v1 + m2v2
m1 = 2 kg
v1 = 2 m/s
m2 = 6 kg
v2 = 0 m/s
substituting the values in the equation
total momentum before = (2 kg x 2 m/s) + (6 kg x 0 m/s)
total momentum = 4 kgm/s
after the collision the 2 objects stick together and have a common velocity
total momentum after the collision = (6 kg + 2 kg)x V = 8V
V = speed of the conglomerate particle
since total momentum before is equal to total momentum after
8V = 4
V = 2 m/s
speed of conglomerate particle is 2 m/s
I'm thinking the answer you are looking for is light energy. With the sunlight there is light energy and heat.
Atomic mass Calcium = 40.078 a.m.u
40.078 g ---------------- 6.02x10²³ atoms
165 g -------------------- ??
165 x ( 6.02x10²³) / 40.078 => 2.47x10²⁴ atoms
hope this helps!
What's the problem ? Hardness is not the definition of a metal.
You need to expand your thinking. EVERY element is solid, liquid, and gas, over different ranges of temperature ... including all of the metals. There are only TWO elements that are liquid AT ROOM TEMPERATURE, and mercury is one of them. But on a mild day at the south pole, mercury is solid too.
