B - A theory seems to be the closest
Answer:
10g
Explanation:
As the Law of Conservation of Mass states that " Mass can neither be created nor be destroyed in a chemical reaction".
Though melting of tin isn't a chemical change, the same logic is applied here...
Hence,
The mass of tin will be 10 g itself...
The question is incomplete. The mass of the object is 10 gram and travelling at a speed of 2 m/s.
Solution:
It is given that mass of object before explosion is,m = 10 g
Speed of object before explosion, v = 2 m/s
Let
be the masses of the three fragments.
Let
be the velocities of the three fragments.
Therefore, according to the law of conservation of momentum,


So the x- component of the velocity of the m2 fragment after the explosion is,

∴ 
Answer: It's hard to say without characterizing the collision. But it will be either A if the collision is totally in-elastic, or B if the collision is totally elastic. It could be anywhere in between for partially elastic collisions.
Explanation:
momentum is conserved, so initial system momentum will be left to right.
The velocity of the center of mass is 50(5) / 550 = 0.4545... m/s
In an elastic collision, the lead ball will move off at twice that speed or 0.91 m/s to the right.
The steel ball will bounce back and move away at 0.91 - 5 = -4.1 m/s . The negative sign indicates the steel ball has reversed course and has negative momentum
In a totally in-elastic collision, both balls would move to the right at 0.45 m/s. The steel ball will still have positive momentum.
-- When the man at the North end throws the ball, the canoe
accelerates to the North.
-- While the ball is in flight, traveling south by the length of the
canoe, the canoe moves northward at a constant speed.
-- If the man at the south end misses the ball and fails to catch it,
then the canoe continues moving south at a constant speed, even
after the ball has passed him.
-- If the man at the south end successfully catches the ball, then the
canoe accelerates south at that moment, and comes to rest in the water.
