Answer:
Option (b) is correct.
Explanation:
Elastic collision is defined as a collision where the kinetic energy of the system remains same. Both linear momentum and kinetic energy are conserved in case of an elastic collision.
Inelastic collision is defined as a collision where kinetic energy of the system is not conserved whereas the linear momentum is conserved. This loss of kinetic energy may due to the conversion to thermal energy or sound energy or may be due to the deformation of the materials colliding with each other.
As given in the problem, before the collision, total momentum of the system is and the kinetic energy is
. After the collision, the total momentum of the system is
, but the kinetic energy is reduced to
. So some amount of kinetic energy is lost during the collision.
Therefor the situation describes an inelastic collision (and it could NOT be elastic).
b) between poles M1 and M2
Explanation:
From the expression, we can deduce that r is the distance between two magnetic poles M1 and M2.
The law of attraction between two magnetic poles states that:
<em> the force of attraction or repulsion between two magnetic poles is a function of the product of the strength of the magnetic poles and the square of the distance between the pole</em>s
Mathematically:
FM = K
here r is the distance between the poles
FM is the magnetic force between the poles
M1 is the strength of the first magnetic pole
M2 is the strength of the second pole
K is the magnetic field constant

Answer:
Option (a)
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass of a car, m = 1200 kg
Force exerted by the engine, F = 600 N
Noe force,F = ma
a is the acceleration of the engine
So, the acceleration of the car is 0.5 m/s².
