Answer:
Elastic Collision
Inelastic Collision
The total kinetic energy is conserved. The total kinetic energy of the bodies at the beginning and the end of the collision is different.
Momentum does not change. Momentum changes.
No conversion of energy takes place. Kinetic energy is changed into other energy such as sound or heat energy.
Highly unlikely in the real world as there is almost always a change in energy. This is the normal form of collision in the real world.
An example of this can be swinging balls or a spacecraft flying near a planet but not getting affected by its gravity in the end.
Answer:
3.38 m/s
Explanation:
Mass of child = m₁ = 25
Initial speed of child = u₁ = 5 m/s
Initial speed of cart = u₂ = 0 m/s
Mass of cart = m₂ = 12 kg
Velocity of cart with child on top = v
This is a case of perfectly inelastic collision

Velocity of cart with child on top is 3.38 m/s
Answer:
680 J
Explanation:
Mechanical energy = potential energy + kinetic energy
ME = PE + KE
ME = mgh + ½ mv²
ME = (77.1 kg) (9.8 m/s²) (0.90 m) + ½ (77.1 kg) (0 m/s)²
ME = 680 J
The chemical formular for water is H2O.
The H aspect of the formula stands for hydrogen gas and the subscript 2 which is attached to the H symbol signifies that two atoms of hydrogen are joined together, that is two atom of hydrogen are present.
The chemical formula of water indicates that, two atom of hydrogen react with one atom of oxygen to form one molecule of water.
In chemical formulae, subscripts are normally used to indicate the number of atoms that are present in a molecule.
