The kinetic energy of the small ball before the collision is
KE = (1/2) (mass) (speed)²
= (1/2) (2 kg) (1.5 m/s)
= (1 kg) (2.25 m²/s²)
= 2.25 joules.
Now is a good time to review the Law of Conservation of Energy:
Energy is never created or destroyed.
If it seems that some energy disappeared,
it actually had to go somewhere.
And if it seems like some energy magically appeared,
it actually had to come from somewhere.
The small ball has 2.25 joules of kinetic energy before the collision.
If the small ball doesn't have a jet engine on it or a hamster inside,
and does not stop briefly to eat spinach, then there won't be any
more kinetic energy than that after the collision. The large ball
and the small ball will just have to share the same 2.25 joules.

Answer:
0.076 m/s
Explanation:
Momentum is conserved:
m v = (m + M) V
(0.111 kg) (55 m/s) = (0.111 kg + 80. kg) V
V = 0.076 m/s
After catching the puck, the goalie slides at 0.076 m/s.
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass of the car, m₁ = 1250 kg
Initial speed of the car, u₁ = 7.39 m/s
Mass of the truck, m₂ = 5380 kg
It is stationary, u₂ = 0
Final speed of the truck, v₂ = 2.3 m/s
Let v₁ is the final velocity of the car. Using the conservation of momentum as :
So, the final velocity of the car is 2.5 m/s but in opposite direction. Hence, this is the required solution.
Answer:
See explanation below
Explanation:
The equation to use for this is the following:
dU = q + w
As the heat is being release, this value is negative, and same here happens with the work done, because it's in the surroundings.
Therefore the change in the energy would be:
dU = -2.59x10^4 - 6.46^4
dU = -9.05x10^4 kJ
