A hockey puck sliding on a frictionless surface strikes a box at rest. After the collision, the two objects stick together and m

ove at some final speed.
Which of the statements describes the change in momentum and energy of the puck during the collision?

a) The puck loses some, but not all, of its original momentum and mechanical energy.
b) One cannot determine if the momentum or energy of the puck is conserved without knowing the final velocities and masses of the two objects.
c) The puck loses some momentum in the collision but conserves its mechanical energy.
d) The puck conserves its original momentum but loses all of its mechanical energy.
e) The puck conserves its original momentum and mechanical energy.
f) The puck conserves its original momentum but loses some, but not all, of its mechanical energy.

Answer:

Answer:

f) The puck conserves its original momentum but loses some, but not all, of its mechanical energy.

 Explanation:

It is a case of perfectly inelastic collision . So momentum will be conserved because no external force acts on them during the collision . But there will be loss of energy ( kinetic energy ) . It will be in the form of sound or heat that is produced during collision. They will still have some kinetic energy even after the collision.

A 1500 kg car skids to a halt on a wet road where μk = 0.47. You may want to review (Pages 141 - 145) . Part A How fast was the
shusha [124]

The car travels at a speed of 25m/s.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given-

Mass, m = 1500kg

Coefficient of friction, μk = 0.47

Distance, x = 68m

Speed, s = ?

We know,

Force, F = ma

and

F = μ X m X g

Therefore,

μ * m * g = m * a

μ * g = a

Let, g = 9.8m/s²

So,

a = 0.47 * 9.8 m/s^2

a = 4.606m/s^2

We know,

v^2 - u^2 = 2as

where, v is the final velocity

           u is the initial velocity

           a is the acceleration

           s is the distance

If the car comes to rest, the final velocity, v becomes 0.

So,

u^2 = 2 * 4.606 * 68\\\\u^2 = 626.416m/s\\\\u = 25m/s

The car travels at a speed of 25m/s.

Why do areas with low altitude have warmer air than areas with high altitude
barxatty [35]

Answer:

Air at higher altitude is under less pressure than air at lower altitude because there is less weight of air above it, so it expands (and cools), while air at lower altitude is under more pressure so it contracts (and heats up).

Explanation:

Hope that helped
