Answer:

Let m1 = mass of big toy car=10kg

m2= mass of small toy car= 5kg

U1= initial velocity of big toy car= 3m/s

U2= initial velocity of small toy car=0

Since the big toy car moved the small one after the collision, their final velocity will be the same.

m1u1 + m2u2= (m1+m2)v

10(3)+(5)(0)=(10+5)v

30=15v

Divide both sides by 15

V=2

The final velocity is 2m/s

Answer:

v_f=2\:\mathrm{m/s}

Explanation:

From the Law of Conservation of Momentum, momentum is conserved. Therefore, we can set up the following equation:

m_1v_1+m_2v_1=m_fv_f

Since the 5kg toy car was initially and rest, m_2v_2=0.

Therefore, plugging in our values, we have:

10\cdot 3=(10+5)v_f,\\v_f=\frac{30}{15},\\v_f=\fbox{$2\:\mathrm{m/s}$}.

Buhrs atomic model differed from ruthofords because it explained that
Scrat [10]

Buhrs atomic model differed from ruthofords because it explained that electrons exist in specified energy levels surrounding the nucleus. This means that, Ruthoford believed that electrons can't do very much. However, Buhrs' model showed that electrons are much more powerful than anyone else believes they can be.
