The law of conservation of momentum tells us that momentum
is conserved, therefore total initial momentum should be equal to total final
momentum. In this case, we can expressed this mathematically as:
mA vA + mB vB = m v
where, m is the mass in kg, v is the velocity in m/s
since m is the total mass, m = mA + mB, we can write the
equation as:
mA vA + mB vB = (mA + mB) v
furthermore, car B was at a stop signal therefore vB = 0,
hence
mA vA + 0 = (mA + mB) v
1800 (vA) = (1800 + 1500) (7.1 m/s)

Answer:
8 m/s²
Explanation:
Given,
Force ( F ) = 4 N
Mass ( m ) = 0.5 kg
To find : -
Acceleration ( a ) = ?
Formula : -
F = ma
a = F / m
= 4 / 0.5
= 40 / 5
a = 8 m/s²
It's acceleration is 8 m/s².
Metamorphism occurs because some minerals are stable only under certain conditions of pressure and temperature. When pressure and temperature change, chemical reactions occur to cause the minerals in the rock to change to an assemblage that is stable at the new pressure and temperature conditions.
