When g=a, that means everything on earth fall at the same rate.
<h3>Why does everything fall to the earth at the same rate?</h3>
As such, all objects free fall at the same rate regardless of their mass. Because the 9.8 N/kg gravitational field at Earth's surface causes a 9.8 m/s/s acceleration of any object placed there, we often call this ratio the acceleration of gravity.
<h3>Why is gravity equal to acceleration?</h3>
When objects fall to the ground, gravity causes them to accelerate. Acceleration is a change in velocity, and velocity, in turn, is a measure of the speed and direction of motion. Gravity causes an object to fall toward the ground at a faster and faster velocity the longer the object falls.

Velocity is a speed AND a direction.
When you turn a corner, or go around a curve in the road, your
direction changes, but the reading on the dial doesn't change.
So it can't be showing velocity. It must be showing only speed.
That's probably a big part of the reason why it's called a speedometer
and not a velocimeter.
Answer:
a) v₂ = 4.2 m/s
b) v₂ = 5 m/s
Explanation:
a)
We will use the law of conservation of momentum here:

where,
m₁ = m₂ = mass of bowling pin = 1.8 kg
u₁ = speed of first pin before collsion = 5 m/s
u₂ = speed of second pin before collsion = 0 m/s
v₁ = speed of first pin after collsion = 0.8 m/s
v₂ = speed of second after before collsion = ?
Therefore,

<u>v₂ = 4.2 m/s</u>
<u></u>
b)
We will use the law of conservation of momentum here:

where,
m₁ = m₂ = mass of bowling pin = 1.8 kg
u₁ = speed of first pin before collsion = 5 m/s
u₂ = speed of second pin before collsion = 0 m/s
v₁ = speed of first pin after collsion = 0 m/s
v₂ = speed of second after before collsion = ?
Therefore,

<u>v₂ = 5 m/s</u>
The answer for this change in the magnitude of momentum is the same for both because momentum is always conserved so both vehicles have the identical change.
So for determining who has the greater change in kinetic energy, momentum (P) = mv so P^2 = m^2 v^2 P^2 / 2m = 1/2 m v^2 = energy So the weightier the mass the smaller the energy change for the same momentum change so in here, the car has a greater change in kinetic energy.
