Answer:
Answer E.
For a collision to be completely elastic, there must be NO LOSS in kinetic energy.
We can go through each answer choice:
A. Since the ball rebounds at half the initial speed, there is a loss in kinetic energy. This is NOT an elastic collision.
B. A collision involving sticking is an example of a perfectly INELASTIC collision. This is NOT an elastic collision.
C. A reduced speed indicates that there is a loss of kinetic energy. This is NOT elastic.
D. The balls traveling at half the speed after the collision indicates a loss of kinetic energy, making this collision NOT elastic.
E. This collision indicates an exchange of velocities, characteristic of an elastic collision. We can prove this:
Let:
m = mass of each ball
v = velocity
We have the initial kinetic energy as:
KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + 0 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2KE=21mv2+0=21mv2
And the final as:
KE = 0 + \frac{1}{2}mv^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2KE=0+21mv2=21mv2

Answer:
In physics, the kinetic energy of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity Having gained this energy during its acceleration the body maintains this kinetic energy unless its speed changes
Example:
A semi-truck travelling down the road
A river flowing at a certain speed
Answer:
Not being able to adapt to their surroundings
Explanation:
For example, a population living in a cold climate and wears little to no clothes will give them frost bite. And so the nature of needing to adapt is core to survival.
Answer:
2s2 2p5
Rb < Sr< Sn< Te<I
Explanation:
Electron affinity is the ability of an atom to accept electrons to form negative ions.
Electron affinity is a periodic trend that decreases down the group but increases across the period.
This accounts for the trends observed in the answer. The atom having the electronic configuration, 2s2 2p5 must be a halogen and it exhibits the highest value of electron affinity.
Also, since electron affinity increases across the period, the electron affinities of the elements increases. Therefore, the arrangement of atoms as shown in the answer depends on increasing electron affinity.
