Answer:
6200 J
Explanation:
Momentum is conserved.
m₁ u₁ + m₂ u₂ = m₁ v₁ + m₂ v₂
The car is initially stationary. The truck and car stick together after the collision, so they have the same final velocity. Therefore:
m₁ u₁ = (m₁ + m₂) v
Solving for the truck's initial velocity:
(2700 kg) u = (2700 kg + 1000 kg) (3 m/s)
u = 4.11 m/s
The change in kinetic energy is therefore:
ΔKE = ½ (m₁ + m₂) v² − ½ m₁ u²
ΔKE = ½ (2700 kg + 1000 kg) (3 m/s)² − ½ (2700 kg) (4.11 m/s)²
ΔKE = -6200 J
6200 J of kinetic energy is "lost".
"Acceleration" does NOT mean speeding up. It also doesn't mean
slowing down. Acceleration means ANY change in the speed
OR DIRECTION of motion.
The only kind of motion that's NOT accelerated is motion at a steady
speed AND in a straight line.
Even when your speed is steady, you're accelerating if your direction
is changing.
A few examples:
(no speeds are changing):
-- driving on a curved road, or turning a corner
-- going around a curve on a skateboard, a bike, or a Segway
-- running on a quarter-mile track
-- an Indy car cruising a practice lap around the track
-- water spinning, getting ready to go down the drain
-- any point on the blade of a fan
-- the little ball going around the inside of a Roulette wheel
-- the Moon in its orbit around the Earth
-- the Earth in its orbit around the sun
Rolling friction is considerably less than sliding friction as there is no work done against the body that is rolling by the force of friction. For a body to start rolling a small amount of friction is required at the point where it rests on the other surface, else it would slide instead of roll.

<h2>
Cohesion </h2>
Is the attraction that molecules have for others of their same type.
<h2>
Adhesion </h2>
Is the attraction that molecules have for others of different type by intermolecular forces.
A good example of both is water that can stick to itself through hydrogen bonds (cohesion) and can also stick to a glass due to adhesion.
So, while Cohesion is the force of attraction between adjacent particles within the same body, Adhesion is the interaction between the surfaces of different bodies.
When water soaks into the ground fast it means the soil is very moist
