Answer:
24.8m/s
Explanation:
Given data
m1= 10kg
u1=25m/s
m2=17kg
u2=16m/s
v1=10m/s
v2=??
Applying the conservation of linear momentum
m1u1+m2u2=m1v1+m2v2
substitute
10*25+17*16=10*10+17*v2
250+272=100+17v2
522=100+17v2
522-100=17v2
422=17v2
Divide both sides by 17
v2= 422/17
v2= 24.8 m/s
Hence the velocity of the red cart is 24.8m/s in the opposite direction of the blue cart
The thermal energy that is generated due to friction is 344J.
<h3>What is the thermal energy?</h3>
Now we know that the total mechanical energy in the system is constant. The loss in energy is given by the loss in energy.
Thus, the kinetic energy is given as;
KE = 0.5 * mv^2 =0.5 * 15.0-kg * (1.10 m/s)^2 = 9.1 J
PE = mgh = 15.0-kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * 2.40 m = 352.8 J
The thermal energy is; 352.8 J - 9.1 J = 344J

Answer:
Tangential
Explanation: This is a kind of force which act on a moving body in such a way that it is curved in the direction of the path of the body. This implies that when the velocity of the object is positive, the acceleration will be negative.
When crest of one wave interferes with the trough of other wave, the amplitude of the resultant wave formed is less. Hence the type of interference is destructive interference.
