Answer: The correct option is (c.).
Explanation:
Mass of the cart A= 1.5 kg
Velocity of Cart A = 1.4 m/s towards right
Mass of the cart B = 1.0 kg
Velocity of Cart B = 1.4 m/s towards left
Momentum (P)= Mass × Velocity
(Negative sign means velocity of the cart is in opposite direction of that of the cart A)
Total Momentum =
Hence, the correct option is (c.).

Answer:
Height.
Explanation:
Potential energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position.
Mathematically, potential energy is given by the formula;
Where,
P.E represents potential energy measured in Joules.
m represents the mass of an object.
g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square.
h represents the height measured in meters.
Hence, the property of the object (having a mass of 5 kilograms) which must differ to have different gravitational potential energies is the height from which they are falling from.
The object having the higher height would have a greater gravitational potential energy than the lower object.
