Answer:

8.3m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

mass of clay ball  = 5kg

Speed of clay ball  = 25m/s

mass of clay ball at rest  = 10kg

speed of clay ball at rest  = 0m/s

Unknown:

Velocity after collision  = ?

Solution:

 Since the balls stick together, this is an inelastic collision:

   m1v1 + m2v2  = v(m1 + m2)

  5(25) + 10(0)  =  v (5 + 10)

         125 = 15v

           v  = 8.3m/s

Water evaporates from the surface of the land and oceans, rises and cools, condenses into rain or snow, and falls again to the surface as precipitation. The water falling on land collects in rivers and lakes, soil, and porous layers of rock, and much of it flows back into the oceans. The cycling of water in and out of the atmosphere is a significant aspect of the weather patterns on Earth. so that will be probs the best i can do

IrinaK [193]
The size of the forces between you and the planet you're on is
your weight on that planet.

Don't forget that you pull the planet with a force equal to the force
that the planet pulls on you.  Your weight on Earth is the same as
the Earth's weight on you !
