<u>Note that</u>:
The gravitational potential energy =
where m: is the mass, g: the acceleration due to the gravity and h is the height from the earth surface
Then, we can increase the gravitational potential energy by increasing the mass or the height from the earth surface
<u>In our question</u>, we can increase the gravitational potential energy by
<u>A) Strap a boulder to the car so that it wights more.</u>
Answer:
0.25m/s
Explanation:
Given parameters
m₁ = 5kg
v₁ = 1.0m/s
m₂ = 15kg
v₂ = 0m/s
Unknown:
velocity after collision = ?
Solution:
Momentum before collision and after collision will be the same. For inelastic collision;
m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = v(m₁ + m₂)
Insert parameters and solve for v;
5 x 1 + 15 x 0 = v (5 + 15 )
5 = 20v
v = = 0.25m/s
