A student performs an experiment in which a 4kg object travels across a horizontal surface with an initial speed velocity of 6m/

s and a 2kg object travels across a horizontal surface with an initial speed velocity of −3m/s. The objects travel toward each other and collide. Data collected from the experiment were used to create the velocity versus time graph shown that contains information about both objects before and after the collision. The positive direction is considered to be to the right. Which of the following statements are true regarding the data from the experiment?
A- Both objects always travel in the positive direction during the experiment.

B- Kinetic energy is conserved during the experiment.

C- The position of the center of mass of the system remains constant during the experiment.

D- The velocity of the center of mass of the two-object system remains constant during the experiment.

If you rub an inflated balloon against your hair and place it against a door, by what mechanism does it stick? explain.
Snowcat [4.5K]
When you rub inflated balloon with your hair or your kitten's fur, charge is induced on all over the balloon's surface. This is called "charging by friction" because you developed charges by rubbing to bodies with each other. It will also stick on your wall you can check it out. This is because of "unlike charges attract each other". Rubbed balloon and wall possessed unlike charges which made them stick together.

Jose’s lab instructor gives him a solution of sodium phosphate that is buffered to a pH of 4. Because of an error that he made w
Kazeer [188]
I am thinking that maybe the problem is not with the calibration. It might be that the buffered solution is already expired since at this point the solution is already not stable and will give a different pH reading than what is expected.

An 800 kg fishing boat going south at 12 m/s runs into a stopped pontoon boat (1400 kg). The boats stick together and move south
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

the velocity of the boats after the collision is 4.36 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of fish, m₁ = 800 kg

mass of boat, m₂ = 1400 kg

initial velocity of the fish, u₁ = 12 m/s

initial velocity of the boat, u₂ = 0

let the final velocity of the fish-boat after collision = v

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum for inelastic collision;

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = v(m₁ + m₂)

800 x 12    +   1400 x 0 = v(800 + 1400)

9600 = 2200v

v = 9600/2200

v = 4.36 m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the boats after the collision is 4.36 m/s.
