Answer:
principle of contiguity
Explanation:
The Law of Contiguity states that after events occur together (in spatio-temporal proximity), the re-occurrence of just one of the event awakens the 'memory' of the others. It is employed in a great number of scientific theories of learning, memory, and knowledge.
The height reached by the two carts after collision is determined as 5.34 m.
<h3>
Initial velocity of Cart A</h3>
Apply the principle of conservation of mechanical energy.
K.E = P.E
v = √2gh
v = √(2 x 9.8 x 12)
v = 15.34 m/s
<h3>Final velocity of the two carts after the collision</h3>
Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum for inelastic collision.
m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = v(m₁ + m₂)
8(15.34) + 4(0) = v(8 + 4)
122.72 = 12v
v = 10.23 m/s
<h3>Height reached by both carts</h3>
Apply the principle of conservation of mechanical energy.
P.E = K.E
mgh = ¹/₂mv²
h = v²/(2g)
h = (10.23²) / (2 x 9.8)
h = 5.34 m
