Mechanical energy can have mechanical systems. The only mechanical system in the list is the compressed spring. A car battery and a glowing incandescent lightbulb have electrical energy, a nucleus of atom has potential (internal) energy.
The change in velocity from 30 m/s north to 40 m/s south is a change of 70 m/s south
The speed of cart b is 6m/s while the total momentum of the systmen is 4200 kg m/s
<h3>Conservation of Linear Momentum</h3>
Given Data
- Mass of cart one M1 = 150kg
- Initial Velocity U1 = 8m/s
Mass of cart two M2 = 150kg
Velocity U2 = 6m/s
Applying the principle of conservation of linear momentum we have
M1U1+M2U2 = M1V1+ M2V2
a. what is the speed of cart b after collision
substituting our given data we have
150*8+ 150*6 = 150*5+150*V2
1200 + 900 = 1200+ 150V2
2100 - 1200 = 150V2
900 = 150V2
Divide both sides by 150
V2 = 900/150
V2 = 6m/s
b. what is the total momentum of the system before and after collision
Total Momentum in the system is
Total momentum = Momentum before Impact+ Momentum after Impact
Total momentum = M1U1+M2U2 + M1V1+ M2V2
Total momentum = 1200 + 900 + 1200+ 900
Total momentum = 4200 kg m/s

First we need to find the acceleration of the skier on the rough patch of snow.
We are only concerned with the horizontal direction, since the skier is moving in this direction, so we can neglect forces that do not act in this direction. So we have only one horizontal force acting on the skier: the frictional force,

. For Newton's second law, the resultant of the forces acting on the skier must be equal to ma (mass per acceleration), so we can write:

Where the negative sign is due to the fact the friction is directed against the motion of the skier.
Simplifying and solving, we find the value of the acceleration:

Now we can use the following relationship to find the distance covered by the skier before stopping, S:

where

is the final speed of the skier and

is the initial speed. Substituting numbers, we find:
The frictional force while the mass is sliding will be 46.2 N.
<h3>What is friction force?</h3>
Opposition forces on the surface cause heat loss during the motion of an object known as the friction force.
Given data:
m(mass)= 10.0-kg
Θ (Inclination angle)=25.0o
Coefficient of sliding friction,
=0.520
Coefficient of static friction,
The friction force, F=?
Resolve the force in the inclined plane;

Hence, the frictional force while the mass is sliding will be 46.2 N.
