Assume that the small-massed particle is 
and the heavier mass particle is 
.
Now, by momentum conservation and energy conservation:
Now, there are 2 solutions but, one of them is useless to this question's main point so I excluded that point. Ask me in the comments if you want the excluded solution too.
So now, we see that 
and 
. So therefore, the smaller mass recoils out.
Hope this helps you!

Answer:
A book on its side exerts a greater force.
Explanation:
Pressure = Force / Area
Assuming that 1kg = 10N
2kg = 20N
Area of book lying flat = 0.3m × 0.2m
= 0.6m²
Pressure of book lying flat = 20N / 0.6m²
= 30Pa (1 s.f.)
Area of book on its side = 0.2m × 0.05m
= 0.01m²
Pressure of book on its side = 20N / 0.01m²
= 2000Pa (1 s.f.)
Since 2000Pa (1 s.f.) > 30Pa (1 s.f.), a book on its side applies greater pressure than lying flat.
True I hope this helps you out
Democritus was the one who did not have experimental evidence to support his theory of the atom.
Answer: Option 4
<u>Explanation:
</u>
The discovery of atoms were first stated by Democritus but due to the absence of any experimental proof, his statement was not noted as significant at that time.
After this, Dalton made the specific assumptions formulating some postulates for the atomic theory with proof. Then the cathode rays tube experiments performed by Thomson lead to the formation of plum pudding models of atom.
This is followed by Rutherford’s gold foil experiment discovering the presence of nucleus inside the atoms. So, Democritus first stated but due to absence of experimental evidences, his theory of atoms were not supported at that time.
Answer:
1 W = 1 J / sec Definition of watt is 1 joule / sec
So if a bulb uses 75 J / sec it must use
75 J/s * 60 sec / min = 4500 J/min energy used by bulb
If bulb is 15% efficient then the light delivered is
P = 4500 J / min * .15 = 675 J / min
