Jerome solves a problem using the law of conservation of momentum. What should Jerome always keep constant for each object after the objects collide and bounce apart?
a-velocity
b-mass
c-momentum
d-direction
Answer:
b. Mass
Explanation:
This question has to do with the principle of the law of conservation of momentum which states that the momentum of a system remains constant if no external force is acting on it.
As the question states, two objects collide with each other and eventually bounce apart, so their momentum may not be conserved but the mass of the objects is constant for each non-relativistic motion. Because of this, the mass of each object prior to the collision would be the same as the mass after the collision.
Therefore, the correct answer is B. Mass.

Answer:
The correct option is;
The graduate cylinder with more water has more thermal energy because it is holding more water molecules
Explanation:
Given that the thermal energy of the system is the energy possessed by the system by virtue of the increased motion of the particles by virtue of a transfer of heat, when the content of the system is heated
The thermal energy, Q is given by the following equation;
Q = Mass, m × The specific heat capacity, C × The change in temperature, ΔT
Given that the graduated cylinder with more water has more mass and therefore, more water molecules, than the cylinder with less water, the cylinder with more water has more thermal energy.
