1,000 grams = 1 kilogram
20 grams = 0.02 kilogram
Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) x (speed)²
(1/2) (0.02) x (15)² =
(0.01) x (225) = 2.25 joules
Answer:
Perfectly inelastic collision
Explanation:
There are two types of collision.
1. Elastic collision : When the momentum of the system and the kinetic energy of the system is conserved, the collision is said to be elastic. For example, the collision of two atoms or molecules are considered to be elastic collision.
2. Inelastic collision: When the momentum the system is conserved but the kinetic energy is not conserved, the collision is said to be inelastic. For example, collision of a ball with the mud.
For a perfectly elastic collision, the two bodies stick together after collision.
Here, the meteorite collide with the Mars and buried inside it, the collision is said to be perfectly inelastic. here the kinetic energy of a body lost completely during the collision.
Answer: b. Throw it directly away from the space station.
Explanation:
According to <u>Newton's third law of motion</u>, <em>when two bodies interact between them, appear equal forces and opposite senses in each of them.</em>
To understand it better:
Each time a body or object exerts a force on a second body or object, it (the second body) will exert a force of equal magnitude but in the opposite direction on the first.
So, if the astronaut throws the wrench away from the space station (in the opposite direction of the space station), according to Newton's third law, she will be automatically moving towards the station and be safe.
matter is a solid liquid or gas , a atom is a basic unit of a chemical element and a molecule is a group of atoms together
