The combined momentum is 4000 kg m/s south
Explanation:
The total combined momentum of the two cars is given by the vector addition of the momenta of the two cars.
For this problem, we choose north as positive direction and south as negative direction.
The momentum of the first car travelling north is given by:
where
is the mass of the car
is its velocity
Substituting,
The momentum of the second car travelling south is given by:
where
is the mass of the car
is its velocity (negative because the car travels south)
Substituting,
And therefore, the combined momentum is
where the negative sign means the direction of the total momentum is south.

Answer:
Option B, Some of the cars' kinetic energy was converted to sound and heat energy.
Explanation:
In an elastic collision, no energy is lost during and after collision. Thus, it can be said that in an elastic collision both momentum and kinetic energy remains conserved.
While in non-elastic collision, kinetic energy of the system is lost. However, the momentum of the system is conserved. Generally, during and after collision some of the kinetic energy is lost as thermal energy, sound energy etc.
Hence, option B is correct
Answer:
true! : )
(i underlined the place where the answer is the other information is just as important but if you do not want to read it you do not have to)
Explanation:
Since gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the separation distance between the two interacting objects, more separation distance will result in weaker gravitational forces. So as two objects are separated from each other, the force of gravitational attraction between them also decreases. the greater the mass, the greater the gravitational pull. <u>gravitational pull decreases with an increase in the distance between two objects.</u> Since gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the separation distance between the two interacting objects, more separation distance will result in weaker gravitational forces. So as two objects are separated from each other, the force of gravitational attraction between them also decreases.
Answer: I believe the answer is C
Explanation:
Cars are composed of hundreds of simple machines
Weight is equivalent to the product of the mass of an object and the strength of the gravitational field.
Using:
F = ma
a = 8.2 / 5
a = 1.64 N/kg
The gravitational field strength is equivalent to 1.64 N/kg.
