When a moving object collides with an object that isn't moving, what happens to the kinetic energy of each object?

The kinetic energy of the object being hit will increase and the the potential energy will decrease. The kinetic energy of the object that collided with the other said object will increase and there will be not potential energy. This is my personal knowledge on the matter.

Although the internet states otherwise:

In the extreme case, multiple objects collide, stick together, and remain motionless after the collision. Since the objects are all motionless after the collision, the final kinetic energy is also zero; the loss of kinetic energy is a maximum.

Answer:

Since the objects are all motionless after the collision, the final kinetic energy is also zero; the loss of kinetic energy is a maximum. Such a collision is said to be perfectly inelastic.

If the mass of the block is 5 kg and the speed 7 m/s, what is the work done <br> on the block?
Kamila [148]

Answer:

A block of mass M = 5 kg is resting on a rough horizontal surface for which the coefficient of friction is 0.2. When a force F = 40N is applied, the acceleration of the block will be then (g=10ms

2 ).

Mass of the block=5kg

Coeffecient of friction=0.2

external applied force, F=40N

The angle at which the force is applied=30degree

So the horizontal component of force=Fcos30=40×

23 =20 3 N

While the uertical component of the force acting in upward direction=Fsin30=40× 21

​ =20N

The normal reaction from the surface (N)=mg−Fsin30=50−20=30N

So the ualue of limiting friction=μN=0.2×30=6N

Hence the net horizontal force on the block=Fcos30=μN=20

3

​

N−6N=28.64N

The horizontal acceleration of the block=

m

Fcos30−μN = 528.64

​  =5.73m/s 2

How much force is needed to keep the bowling ball moving towards the pins once it has
vazorg [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The amount of force needed needs to be greater than all the forces acting in the opposite direction that the bowling ball was thrown. This includes air resistance, floor friction, gravity, and any other force involved. As long as the force acting on the bowling ball that is causing it to go in the direction of the pins is slightly greater than the opposite acting forces then it will continue in that direction. Since no values are provided we cannot calculate the actual precise value of force needed.
