By definition, the kinetic energy is given by:
 K = (1/2) * m * v ^ 2
 where
 m = mass
 v = speed
 We must then find the speed of both objects:
 blue puck
 v = root ((0) ^ 2 + (- 3) ^ 2) = 3
 gold puck
 v = root ((12) ^ 2 + (- 5) ^ 2) = 13
 Then, the kinetic energy of the system will be:
 K = (1/2) * m1 * v1 ^ 2 + (1/2) * m2 * v2 ^ 2
 K = (1/2) * (4) * (3 ^ 2) + (1/2) * (6) * (13 ^ 2)
 K = <span> 525</span> J
 answer
 The kinetic energy of the system is<span> <span>525 </span></span>J

Consider three identical electric bulbs of power P. Two of bulbs are connected in series and the third one is connected in paral
Tamiku [17]

Answer: 3P/2

Explanation: Let the resistance of the bulbs be R.

now lets consider a Voltage V is supplied to the parallel circuit  such that

P=VI=V^2/R

V=IR

both single bulb( bulb 3) and the two bulbs ( bulb 1 and bulb 2) are provided the same Voltage

( as the voltage remains same in parallel circuit)

we can calculate the Current across both circuits

At Bulb 3

Current 1=V/R

Power1=Voltage * Current1

Power1=V*V/R

Power1=P

At Bulb 1 and Bulb 2

Total Resistance= R+R=2R

Current2=\frac{V}{2R}

Power2=Voltage * Current2

Power2=V*\frac{V}{2R} \\Power2=\frac{V^2}{2R} \\Power2=P/2

TotalPower=Power1+Power2\\TotalPower=P+P/2\\TotalPower=\frac{3P}{2}
