Answer:

30m/s

Explanation:

From the principle of conservation of momentum; it implies momentum before collision is same after collision hence

M1U1 +M2U2= M1V1 +M2V1

Since both objects comes to rest after collision it means the final velocity is 0 and this has been represented as V1; hence the right side of the equation evaluates to zero.

We can then rewrite the equation as;M1U1 +M2U2=0

Let U1 and U2 be the respective velocity for M1 =30kg and M2= 50kg respectively.

Hence the equation becomes on substituting M1,M2 and U1.

We have;

30×5 + 50×U2 = 0

150 +50U2=0

50U2 = -150

U2= -150/50 = -30m/s

Ignore the -ve sign which shows the direction of the 50kg mass was opposite that of 30kg

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

Modern racism

Explanation:

Modern racism emanates from an aggressive prejudicial behavior to a more subtle prejudicial behavior. This subtle prejudicial behavior advanced to a degree that is much more difficult to see, yet is regarded as more severe. The modern form of racism is the workplace. Although many companies promise an equal opportunity, there is little doubt that everyone is treated equally within their place of work. Subtle, modern racism is believed to create an image that seems more politically correct. The politically correct way to discriminate is through a "polite" form of racism. In the past racism was easily defined and institutional

Modern racism is among the most widespread forms of verbally expressed negative racial attitudes in the United States .

6. What are 3 different evidences of evolution? How is each form used to provide evidence of evolution?
Cloud [144]

Answer:

Divergent - This type of evolution often occurs when closely related species diversify to new habitats. On a large scale, divergent evolution is responsible for the creation of the current diversity of life on earth from the first living cells. On a smaller scale, it is responsible for the evolution of humans and apes from a common primate ancestor.

Convergent - Convergent evolution causes difficulties in fields of study such as comparative anatomy. Convergent evolution takes place when species of different ancestry begin to share analogous traits because of a shared environment or other selection pressure. For example, whales and fish have some similar characteristics since both had to evolve methods of moving through the same medium: water.

Parallel evolution - Parallel evolution occurs when two species evolve independently of each other, maintaining the same level of similarity. Parallel evolution usually occurs between unrelated species that do not occupy the same or similar niches in a given habitat.

If a puddle of water is frozen, do the particles in the ice have kinetic energy? Explain.
TEA [102]
They have some but not very much, the particles in the ice are still vibrating just not as much as in water. the only time a substance would have 0 kinetic energy is when that substance is at 0 degrees kelvin(absolute zero) so far no place in the universe has been recorded at absolute zero though
