Answer:

<h2> 16 wheeler</h2>

Explanation:

<em>"Inertial mass is a measure of an object resistance to acceleration when a force is applied. the inertial is a function of the mass of a body.</em>

<em />

Given the following

1. Elephant

2. Ant sumo fighter

3. Toddler pickup truck

4. 16 wheeler.

<em />

The body of greater mass has greater inertia.

Of all the 4 items in the list, the 16 wheeler has the largest mass, hence it also has the greater inertial

g A lighter ball A with momentum PA=5.0 kg∙m/s in positive x-direction approaches a heavier ball B at rest before the collision.
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

7kgm/s

Explanation:

Using the law of conservation of momentum which states that the sum of momentum of bodies before collision is equal to the sum of the bodies after collision.

Let P1A and P1B be the initial momentum of the bodies A and B respectively

Let P2A and P2B be the final momentum of the bodies A and B respectively after collision.

Based on the law:

P1A+P2A = P1B + P2B

Given P1A = 5kgm/s

P2A = 0kgm/s(ball B at rest before collision)

P2A = -2.0kgm/s (negative because it moves in the negative x direction)

P2B = ?

Substituting the values in the equation gives;

5+0 = -2+P2B

5+2 = P2B

P2B = 7kgm/s

An iron nail is driven into a block of ice by a single blow of a hammer. The hammerhead has a mass of 0.5 kg and an initial spee
larisa [96]

Answer:

The ice melts mass is:

m_g=7.6x10^{-3} g

Explanation:

Kinetic Energy  

K_E = 1/2*m*v^2

K_E = 1/2*0.5kg*(3.2m/s)^2

K_E=2.56 kg*m^2/s^2

Heat gained by ice= mass(g) x 80 cal

( 1 cal = 4.184 *10^7er or g cm^2/ sec^2)

Assuming no loss in heat,  in the motion so both continue with temperature 0~C

To find so the mass (gm) of ice melted

m_g= 1/2 *(0.5*1000)*(3.2m/s)^2* 100*100 / (80*4.184*10^7)

m_g=7.6x10^{-3} g
