6 m/s
This type of collision is a <u>Inelastic collision </u>
Explanation:
We begin by finding the momentum of the initial train car;
Remember that momentum is given by the formulae mass (kg) * velocity (m/s)
Therefore;
Momentum = 6000 * 10
= 60,000 kg⋅m/s
The other car has zero momentum because;
4000 * 0
= 0
When the two train cars collide, the total momentum will be;
60,000 + 0 = 60,000
Therefore to find the velocity, well use the same formulae;
p = mv whereby;
p – momentum
m – mass
v – velocity
60,000 = (6000 + 4000) * v
v = 60,000 / 10,000
v = 6
= 6 m/s
This is an elastic collision because we are assuming that no energy is lost in the collision. Most collisions, however, are not elastic but rather inelastic. In inelastic collision some of the kinetic energy is lost to the environment in some other form of energy such as heat energy.

Answer:
Covalent bonds form when two atoms share valence electrons,
while Van der Waals forces cause an attraction between nonpolar
molecules
Explanation:
A covalent bond is said to be formed when two atoms of the same or different elements share electrons. In an ordinary covalent bond, each bonding atom contributes one valence electron while in a dative covalent bond only one of the bonding atoms provides the shared pair of electrons.
Van Der Waals forces is the major intermolecular interaction between non polar compounds. Van Der Waals forces " are caused by correlations in the fluctuating polarizations of nearby particles"(Wikipedia).
Answer:
The correct answer is B.
Explanation:
Option A is wrong. Mammals were not the prominent species before the extinction of dinosaurs because the mammal species that lived during the dinosaurs' era were so small that they only weighed several grams and occupied small areas as their habitats.
Option C is wrong. As dinosaurs became extinct, reptiles and "birds" remained as their descendant which evolved to some of the species that we know today.
Option D is wrong. Pangea started to break up to form the geographic isolation for the diversion of many species around 175 million years ago.
So the correct answer is B. Massive extinction disrupts and changes the food chain in such a big way that it triggers a domino effect that leads to species adapting to their new environment and diversifying thus forming new species in the process.

Answer:
Bone.
Explanation:
Calcium is one of the important element present in the body. Calcium plays an important role in the muscle contraction. The calcium ions also acts as a signalling molecule during cell signalling.
The calcium is present in our extracellular fluids, bones, and teeth. The major constituent of calcium is present in the bone. The bone consists of around 90% body;s calcium.
Thus, the correct answer is option (b).
