W=Fs
W=18(0.42)
W=7.56
Answer: 7.6 J (first option)
It should be at the very top since it has more space to fall which gives it more potential energy
The answer for this question is D
The easiest way to answer this question is just to get the answer first. The answer is A with the added comment that no chemical reaction has taken place.
Layered means that the chemicals are not soluble in one another. B is not the answer.
C is eliminated by what what was said about A.
D a solution is not a pure substance (singular) by itself. There are at least 2 chemicals together.
The angular momentum is defined as,

Acording to this text we know for conservation of angular momentum that

Where
is initial momentum
is the final momentum
How there is a difference between the stick mass and the bug mass, we define that
Mass of the bug= m
Mass of the stick=10m
At the point 0 we have that,

Where l is the lenght of the stick which is also the perpendicular distance of the bug's velocity
vector from the point of reference (O), and ve is the velocity
At the end with the collition we have

Substituting




Applying conservative energy equation we have


Replacing the values and solving

Substituting
l=\frac{13}{0.54(9.8)}
