Answer:

Linear momentum

Explanation:

The most likely conservation candidate is the linear momentum. The law of momentum conservation states that the sum of momenta before and after an (elastic or inelastic) collision will remain constant.

The kinetic energy is another possible, but less likely suspect. It is conserved in elastic collisions (i.e., those with no kinetic energy loss), but we are not told this collision is assumed elastic. In fact the real setup would be nowhere close to an elastic collision, as the stick lies on ice, which hasn't be zambonied for an entire period of rough skating, there's rough surface and the stick's shaft is also slightly stuck to the surface through frost. So when the puck hits the stick, a portion of its kinetic energy is spent to unstick the stick and get it moving. And so, kinetic energy is not conserved.

Angular momentum is not applicable with the puck-stick scenario.

The jnd for a 100-gram weight, according to Weber's law will be 10 gram.

<h3>What is Weber's law?</h3>

It should be noted that Weber's law asserts that the nature of any given stimulus will always affect how change is perceived. In other words, the size, weight, importance, etc. of the prior situation and the significance of the change both influence whether a change will be observed.

In this case, it was given that the jnd for a 10-gram weight was 1 gram, therefore, the jnd for 100 gram will be;

= 100 / 10

= 10 gram

Therefore, jnd for a 100-gram weight, according to Weber's law will be 10 grams.

Coulomb's Law.

The electrical force can be understood by remembering Coulomb's Law, that describes the electrostatic force between two charged particles. If the particles have charges $q_1$ and $q_2$ , are separated by a distance r and are at rest relative to each other, then its electrostatic force magnitude on particle 1 due particle 2 is given by:
