Explanation:
Given
Piece of taffy slams in to sticks to another identical piece and stuck into it.
Let m be the mass of taffy and u be the initial velocity of taffy and v be the final velocity of system.
Conserving momentum
Initial kinetic energy
Final Kinetic Energy
change in kinetic energy 
change in kinetic energy will contribute in heat energy
thus fraction of kinetic energy converted in to heat 
Answer:
The wooden floor exerts a greater force to give the same impulse as a padded mat.
Explanation:
-The wooden floor exerts a greater force for the same impulse as the padded mat.
-Unlike the wooded floor, the padded mat absorbs some of the energy when you fall. This in turn makes it exert less force on the body during the fall.
-Hence, you are less hurt when you fall on the padded floor.
Explanation:
a)Snell's law states that when light travels from a rarer to a denser substance, like air to water or from a less dense layer of the atmosphere to a denser layer, it bends towards the normal{an imaginary line that is perpendicular to the surface of both media}. However,the opposite occurs when light moves from a more dense to a less dense medium. The angle between the normal and the refracted light ray is known as the angle of refraction.
In case of earth as light from the stars enters the earth atmosphere it bends towards smaller angle because the earth density increases as the light travel towards the earth troposphere from the exosphere as per the Snell's law described above.
b)Light rays that travel straight down do not bend, while rays that enter the Earth's atmosphere at a shallower angle get refracted and bend towards the normal, roughly following the direction of the Earth's curvature.
This means that celestial objects in the zenith position directly above you appear in the correct position, while objects closer to the horizon appear to be higher up in the sky than they actually are.
