Answer:
b) -10 m/s
Explanation:
In perfectly elastic head on collisions of identical masses, the velocities are exchanged with one another.
Mountains, tops of buildings, and high-flying aircraft are all part of Earth's atmosphere, no matter how high they are. On the other hand, space doesn't belong to our atmosphere, it is outside of it. Having this in mind, the best location to place a telescope used to observe x-rays from stars is in space.
The answer is c: <span>1960 J
</span>Potential Energy :
<span>PE = m x g x h = 40*9.8*5=1960

For the part a) we need only the momentum of the box and we have the data to find it.
Momentum is given by,

where clearly, p is the momentum, m the mass of the box and v is the velocity.
Substituting,

For part b) we need an analysis of the situation. We understand that the box on a surface that has no friction will continue to rotate at the same speed previously defined. The box can only stop with friction, so,

<em>It is the same that part a)</em>
