Answer: A is correct
It is showing the direction that protons move in, making the sphere negative
Explanation:
From the figure, since the charges on the rod are completely positive, it shows that the protons are transferring from the sphere to the rod leaving the rod negatively charged.
Therefore, It is showing the direction that protons move in, making the sphere negative.
Given :
Initial speed of car A is 15 m/s and initial speed of car B is zero.
Final speed of car A is zero and final speed of car B is 10 m/s.
To Find :
What fraction of the initial kinetic energy is lost in the collision.
Solution :
Initial kinetic energy is :
Final kinetic energy is :
Now, fraction of initial kinetic energy loss is :
Therefore, fraction of initial kinetic energy loss in the collision is 1.25 .
