This problem here is an example of inelastic collision where kinetic energy is not conserved but momentum is. We calculate as follows:
m1v1 + m2v2 = (m1 + m2)v3
v3 = m1v1 + m2v2 / m1 + m2
v3 = (30.2)(1000) + (5000)(0) / (30.2 + 5000)
v3 = 6.00 m/s
Answer:
An activity series is a list of substances ranked in order of relative reactivity. For example, magnesium metal can knock hydrogen ions out of solution, so it is considered more reactive than elemental hydrogen. The activity series is a useful guide for predicting the products of metal displacement reactions.
Answer:
F' = 162 units
Explanation:
The gravitational force of attraction between the two objects is given by Newton's Gravitational law through the following formula:

where,
F = gravitational force = 18 units
G = Gravitational Constant
m₁ = mass of object 1
m₂ = mass of object 2
r = distance between objects
Therefore,

Now, if we change the value of distance to one-third of original value, then:
r' = r/3

using eqn (1):
F' = 9(18 units)
<u>F' = 162 units</u>
