Mass will remain unchanged, always. His weight, which is the gravitational force acting on that mass will be less in this case.
The material that the snails are moving on affects their speed. On a smooth material, (petri dish) the snails moved the fastest. On a rough material (sandpaper) the snails moved the slowest. On dirt, a compromise between smooth and rough, the snails moved at a medium pace. The material and possibly friction affect this.
Answer:
Explanation:
From the given information:
the car's momentum = momentum of the truck
∴
(a) 816 kg × v = 2650 kg × 16.0 km/h
v = (2650 kg × 16.0 km/h) / 816 kg
v = 51.96 km/hr
(b) 816 kg × v = 9080 kg × 16.0 km/h
v = (9080 kg × 16.0 km/h) / 816 kg
v = 178.04 km/hr
