A large mass collides with a stationary, smaller mass. How will the masses behave if the collision is inelastic?

Physics

Answer:

Both of them are going to loss energy.

Explanation:

In an inelastic collision, the energy that both objects had are bigger than the one at the end of the collision, in this case, the difference of masses in the objects  might produce that the objects can bounce.

The larger mass would overpower the lower mass because its not strong enough hope this helped

Data:

Time (t) = 5 seconds
Final Velocity (v) = 0 [as the car comes to rest]
<span>Initial velocity (u) = 20 m/s
</span>Acceleration = ? <span>(Negative because it is braking)</span>

Acceleration =  \frac{v-u}{t}
Acceleration = \frac{0-20}{5}
\boxed{Acceleration = - 4m/s^2}

Calculate the acceleration of a bus whose speed changes from 7 m/s to 16 m/s over a period of 5 s.
Bezzdna [24]
Let’s do this together!

Okay so the acceleration formula is vf-vi over time .

So the initial velocity (vi) 7m/s final velocity (vf) is 16m/s so we’re going to subtract 16-7 which is 9
M/s

So the time is 5s so 9m/s divided into 5s is 1.8m/s/2

So the answer is 1.8m\s2

Which process is a form of mechanical weathering?
marishachu [46]
Mechanical weathering is actually breaking down of rocks into smaller pieces by natural forces. Any weathering processes that can cause the physical breakdown of rocks without any type of change in the chemical composition of rocks, called mechanical weathering.

So, looking at each of the definitions in the options, we can easily choose:
1. Hydration : It's a process of absorbing water by substance.

2. Carbonation: It's a process of Carbon Dioxide dissolving in liquid (mostly water).

3. Oxidation : It's a process of oxygen reacting with some element.

4. <span>Exfoliation:  It's a process where the rocks erodes by peeling off in sheets or layer by layer rather than grain by grain.

As you can see the last one </span><span>Exfoliation matches with the definition of mechanical weathering. It's one of its types.</span>

A spacecraft with a proper length of 250 m passes by an observer on the earth. according to this observer, it takes 0.770 µs for
Sophie [7]
If 1 second = 10000 μs
what about how many seconds = 0.77 μs
the calculations would be done lke this 
          0.77 x 1/1000000 = 7.7 x 10 ^ -7
Speed = distance / time
distance = length of the spacecraft
therefore speed = 250/7.7 x 10^ -7
ans = 324675324.7 m/s
