Well, the surface of still water has surface tension. If there isn't enough mass or weight to break the surface tension, the object will float.
The final velocity of the two pucks is -5 m/s
Explanation:
We can solve the problem by using the law of conservation of momentum.
In fact, in absence of external force, the total momentum of the two pucks before and after the collision must be conserved - so we can write:

where
is the mass of each puck
is the initial velocity of the 1st puck
is the initial velocity of the 2nd puck
v is the final velocity of the two pucks sticking together
Re-arranging the equation and solving for v, we find:

Answer:
ELASTIC collision
kinetic energy is conservate
Explanation:
As the ball bounces to the same height, it can be stated that the impact with the floor is ELASTIC.
As the floor does not move the conservation of the moment
po = pf
-mv1 = m v2
- v1 = v2
So the speed with which it descends is equal to the speed with which it rises
Therefore the kinetic energy of the ball before and after the collision is the same

At the Earth's surface, warm air expands and rises, creating
what is known as an area of low pressure.
Cold air is dense and sinks to the surface to create what is
known as an area of high pressure.</span>
