The metal ball lost energy while the putty ball gained energy.
<h3>What is momentum?</h3>
Momentum is the product of mass and velocity of the body. We must note that momentum before collision is equal to momentum after collision.
1) Kinetic energy before collision = 1/2mv^2 = 0.5 * 6 * 4 = 12 J
2) kinetic energy after collision = 0.5 * 6 * 2= 6 J
3) Kinetic energy of putty ball = 0.5 * 6 * 2= 6 J
4) Energy lost by the metal ball = 12 J - 6 J = 6 J
5) Energy gained by the putty ball = 6 J - 0J = 6 J
6) The rest of the energy was converted to heat after the collision.

Answer:
Point a
Explanation:
The potential energy of an object is given by :
P = mgh
m is mass, g is acceleration due to gravity, h is height above ground level.
Potential energy is directly proportional to the position of an object.
In the attached figure, the maximum height is shown at point (a). It means it will have maximum potential energy at a as compared to b,c and d.
Answer:
Depends.
Explanation:
Whether the object is going left or right, the speed will stay the same until friction eventually stops it. <em>However, </em>if, for example, we're talking about an object going straight before veering right, then yes, speed <em>does</em> matter. An object will normally have to speed up or slow down momentarily when changing direction to keep itself sustained on the ground.
So, honestly? It really depends on what we're talking about!
Hope this helped!
