C. The potential energy would double.

Explanation:

The potential energy of an object is the energy at rest. it is the product of its mass, gravity and height.

   Potential energy = mgh

where m is the mass

           g is the acceleration due to gravity

            h is the height

From the above, potential energy is proportional to the height. If any change in any of the parameters will directly affect the potential energy. This implies that if height is double, the potential energy is doubled.

An Arrow (0.5 kg) travels with velocity 20 m/s to the right when it pierces an apple (2 kg) which is initially at rest. After th
sattari [20]

Answer:

4 m/s

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of momentum,

Total momentum before collision = Total momentum after collision

mu+m'u' = V(m+m')...................... Equation 1

Where m = mass of the arrow, u = initial velocity of the arrow, m' = mass of the apple, u' = initial velocity of the apple, V = Final velocity of the apple and the arrow after collision.

make V the subject of the equation

V = (mu+m'u')/(m+m').................... Equation 2

Given: m = 0.5 kg, m' = 2 kg, u = 20 m/s, u' = 0 m/s(initially at rest)

Substitute into equation 2

V = (0.5×20+2×0)/(2+0.5)

V = 10/2.5

V = 4 m/s.

Hence the final velocity of the apple and the arrow after the collision = 4 m/s
