I’m pretty sure it is caused by the heat of the sun warming it up back into its original state of tar

Explain what causes acid rain to form and its negative effects on living and nonliving things.

OLga [1]

What causes it to form: <span>Acid rain is caused by a chemical reaction that begins when compounds like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are released into the air. These substances can rise very high into the atmosphere, where they mix and react with water, oxygen, and other chemicals to form more acidic pollutants, known as acid rain. Human activities, power plants, and exhaust from vehicles all are causes.</span>
Affects on living things-
Acid rain can kill trees
It can affect plant growth patterns
Toxins can kill animals
Nonliving things-
It can decay building materials and paints
it breaks down rocks

How will the motion of a falling whirligig compare to that of a falling paper ball?

kicyunya [14]

The motion of a falling whirligig is different to that of a falling paper ball due to spinning.

<h3>Type of motion performed by whirligig and falling paper ball </h3>

The motion of a falling whirligig is different from the motion of a falling paper ball because the paper ball falls on the ground without spinning while on the other hand, the whirligig falls on the ground along with spinning.

The falling whirligig performs two motion i.e. one is falling on the ground and the other is spinning during motion whereas paper ball performs one motion i.e. motion in the air towards the ground so we can conclude that the motion of a falling whirligig is different than of a falling paper ball.

Answer:

m1/6 ( c )

Explanation:

since all the balls starts having the same momentum after the two collisions we will apply the principal of conservation of energy

After first collision

m1v = m1v1 + m2v2 --- ( 1 )

After second collision

m2v2 = m2v2 + m3v3 ---- ( 2 )

combining equations 1 and 2

m1v = m1v1 + m2v2 + m3v3 ----- ( 3 )

All balls moving at the same momentum ( p ) = m1v1 = m2v2 = m3v3

note ; 3p = m1v ∴ m3 = $\frac{m1v}{3v3}$ ----- ( 4 )

applying conservation of energy

3v = v1 + v2 + v3 ------- ( 5 )

also 3m1v1 = m1v = v1 = v/3 =

v2 + v3 = 8/3 v ----- ( 6 )

next eliminate V3 for equation 6 by applying conservation of energy and momentum

m1 = 2m2 ------ ( 7 )

now using p1 = p2 = m1v1 = 1/2 m1v1 hence v2 = 2v1 where v1 = 1/3 v

hence ; v2 = 2/3 v ------- ( 8 )

solving with equation 6 and 8

v3 = 2v ------ ( 9 ) ∴ v/v3 = 1/2 ---- ( 10 )

solving with equation 9 and 10

m3 = m1/3 * 1/2 = m1/6
