Kinetic energy lost in collision is 10 J.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Given,
Mass, 
= 4 kg
Speed, 
= 5 m/s
= 1 kg
= 0
Speed after collision = 4 m/s
Kinetic energy lost, K×E = ?
During collision, momentum is conserved.
Before collision, the kinetic energy is
By plugging in the values we get,
K×E = 50 J
Therefore, kinetic energy before collision is 50 J
Kinetic energy after collision:
Since,
Initial Kinetic energy = Final kinetic energy
50 J = 40 J + K×E(lost)
K×E(lost) = 50 J - 40 J
K×E(lost) = 10 J
Therefore, kinetic energy lost in collision is 10 J.
Answer:
B) how steep the slope is
Explanation:
Because you have to know how is the influence of the steep of the slope in the time that a ball reaches the bottom. The steep of the slope is the variable that you would have to change in an experiment.
I hope this is useful for you

The work done will be equal to the potential energy of the piano at the final position
P.E=m.g.h
.consider the plank the hypotenuse of the right triangle formed with the ground
.let x be the angle with the ground=31.6°
.h be the side opposite to the angle x (h is the final height of the piano)
.let L be the length of the plank
sinx=opposite side / hypotenuse
= h/L
then h=L.sinx=3.49×sin31.6°=0.638m
weight w=m.g
m=w/g=3858/10=385.8kg
Consider Gravity g=10m/s2
then P.E.=m.g.h=385.8kg×10×0.638=2461.404J
then Work W=P.E.=2451.404J
