Answer: The correct option is (c.).
Explanation:
Mass of the cart A= 1.5 kg
Velocity of Cart A = 1.4 m/s towards right
Mass of the cart B = 1.0 kg
Velocity of Cart B = 1.4 m/s towards left
Momentum (P)= Mass × Velocity
(Negative sign means velocity of the cart is in opposite direction of that of the cart A)
Total Momentum =
Hence, the correct option is (c.).
Gravitational energy is a form of potential energy because it is dependent on the mass of an object and needs to be calculated for the specific object.
Answer:
Sample Response: In a vacuum, there are no atoms or particles that interfere with the path of light. However, in other media, the speed of light is lower than 3.0 × 108 m/s because the wave is continuously absorbed and re-emitted by each atom in its path. The differences in speed are due to the composition of the medium and the density of the particles in the medium.
Explanation:
Answer:
B. The escape speed of the Moon is less than that of the Earth; therefore, less energy is required to leave the Moon.
Explanation:
Since the speed required to escape from the gravitational attraction of the Moon is less than the speed required to escape from the gravitational attraction of the Earth, less energy is required to travel from the Moon to the Earth, than is required to travel from the Earth to the Moon. This is because the kinetic energy is directly proportional to the square of the velocity.
