Answer:
Momentum is always conserved, and kinetic energy may be conserved.
Explanation:
For an object moving on a horizontal, frictionless surface which makes a glancing collision with another object initially at rest on the surface, the type of collision experienced by this objects can either be elastic or an inelastic collision depending on whether the object sticks together after collision or separates and move with a common velocity after collision.
If the body separates and move with a common velocity after collision, the collision is elastic but if they sticks together after collision, the collision is inelastic.
Either ways the momentum of the bodies are always conserved since they will always move with a common velocity after collision but their kinetic energy may or may not be conserved after collision, it all depends whether they separates or stick together after collision and since we are not told in question whether or not they separate, we can conclude that their kinetic energy "may" be conserved.
Answer:
Explanation:
The climate of any particular place is influenced by a host of interacting factors.
The factor that influence climate are
1. latitude
2. elevation,
3. nearby water
4. ocean currents
5. topography
6. vegetation
7. prevailing winds.
The primary cause of climate change is the burning of fossil fuels, such as oil and coal, which emits greenhouse gases into the atmosphere—primarily carbon dioxide. Other human activities, such as agriculture and deforestation, also contribute to the proliferation of greenhouse gases that cause climate change.
Explanation:
Iron transition metal
Potassium Alkaline metal
Strontium Alkaline earth metal
Platinum transition metal
The periodic table arranges elements based on their atomic numbers into periods and groups. Atomic number is the number of protons an atom contains.
On the periodic table:
Group IA is called Alkaline metal
Group IIA is the Alkaline earth metals
Group IIIA Boron family elements
Group VIIA Halogens
Group O Noble gases or inert gases.
Group IIIB to IIB Transition elements.
Running a check of the given elements on the periodic table will confirm answer.

The force constant of the spring is determined as 14,222.2 N/m.
<h3>Force constant of the spring</h3>
Apply the principle of conservation of energy,
K.E = U
where;
- K.E kinetic energy of the elevator
- U is elastic potential energy of the spring
¹/₂mv² = ¹/₂kx²
mv² = kx²
k = mv²/x²
Where;
- m is mass of the elevator
- v is speed
- x is compression of the spring
k = (2000 x 8²)/(3²)
k = 14,222.2 N/m
Thus, the force constant of the spring is determined as 14,222.2 N/m.

The locks referred to here are the elevators that are used to transport boats safely from one water level to another in dams. These two varying water depths allow river traffic to operate The attached picture shows how boats enter locks in dam sites.
To regulate traffic, there are traffic lights that signal boatmen to adjust their speed when approaching the lock. The red light means to stop and to steer clear away from the lock to allows the boats inside to exit. The green light signals to enter the lock. Lastly, the amber light means approach the lock at a safe speed and under full control.
