Answer:

Explanation:

(newtons first law)

conservation of momentum law states :

momentum before collision = momentum after collision

momentum p (kg-m/s)= mass * velocity

say moving car=1 000 kg, velocity = 10 m/s then p = 1 000*10= 10 000 kg-m/s

say still car = 2 000 kg, velocity = 0 m/s then p = 2 000* 0 = 0 kg-m/s

total momentum prior to collision = 10 000 + 0 = 10 000 kg-m/s

momentum after collision = 10 000 kg-m/s

mass now = 1 000 kg+2 000 kg = 3 000 kg

10 000 = 3 000 kg* velocity m/s

10 000/3 000 = velocity

3.33 m/s = velocity after collision

an impulse is a force applied over time , momentum is exclusive of external forces and a perfect collision is implied

A battery powers a circuit for a small noisy fan. The fan's motor gets warm as it turns. What energy transformations are
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

Chemical energy to electrical energy to mechanical and thermal energy

Explanation:

In the rotating fan, the chemical energy stored in the battery is used to generate electrical energy.

The electrolytes within the battery undergoes chemical reactions that produces electric current.

  • The current is being used to drive the motor of the fan to produce a mechanical energy as it rotates.
  • In like manner, heat energy is also produced.
  • So, energy is simply being transformed from one form to the other in this system.
