Answer:
The kinetic energy of the system after the collision is 9 J.
Explanation:
It is given that,
Mass of object 1, m₁ = 3 kg
Speed of object 1, v₁ = 2 m/s
Mass of object 2, m₂ = 6 kg
Speed of object 2, v₂ = -1 m/s (it is moving in left)
Since, the collision is elastic. The kinetic energy of the system before the collision is equal to the kinetic energy of the system after the collision. Let it is E. So,

E = 9 J
So, the kinetic energy of the system after the collision is 9 J. Hence, this is the required solution.
Answer:
Advantages: Very sturdy, can have several cracks in structure before breaking
disadvantages: best for short distances, not attractive, hard to maintain
Given that,
Initial velocity , Vi = 0
Final velocity , Vf = 40 m/s
Acceleration due to gravity , a = 9.81 m/s²
Distance can be calculated as,
2as = Vf² - Vi²
2 * 9.81 *s = 40² - 0²
s = 81.55 m
For half height, that is, s = 40.77m
Vf= ??
2as = Vf² - Vi²
2 * 9.81 * 40.77 = Vf² - 0²
Vf² = 800
Vf = 28.28 m/s
Therefore, speed of roller coaster when height is half of its starting point will be 28 m/s.
F=ma
m=total mass = 2300kg+2500kg=4800
F=18000N
a=?
a=F/m
a=18000/4800
a=3.8m/s^2
Final answer
