Because there is no horizontal force on the object, and we all know what happens to velocity in a direction where there is no force.
The answer to this is reflection, because the sound waves are reflected off of the walls

Answer
given,
mass of steel ball, M = 4.3 kg
length of the chord, L = 6.5 m
mass of the block, m = 4.3 Kg
coefficient of friction, μ = 0.9
acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.81 m/s²
here the potential energy of the bob is converted into kinetic energy



v = 11.29 m/s
As the collision is elastic the velocity of the block is same as that of bob.
now,
work done by the friction force = kinetic energy of the block




d = 7.23 m
the distance traveled by the block will be equal to 7.23 m.
Answer:
No, it is not conserved
Explanation:
Let's calculate the total kinetic energy before the collision and compare it with the total kinetic energy after the collision.
The total kinetic energy before the collision is:

where m1 = m2 = 1 kg are the masses of the two carts, v1=2 m/s is the speed of the first cart, and where v2=0 is the speed of the second cart, which is zero because it is stationary.
After the collision, the two carts stick together with same speed v=1 m/s; their total kinetic energy is

So, we see that the kinetic energy was not conserved, because the initial kinetic energy was 2 J while the final kinetic energy is 1 J. This means that this is an inelastic collision, in which only the total momentum is conserved. This loss of kinetic energy does not violate the law of conservation of energy: in fact, the energy lost has simply been converted into another form of energy, such as heat, during the collision.
