<span>Temperature causes water molecules to move more quickly, because each individual molecule has more energy as it gets hotter (according to Kinetic molecular theory). If you get water hot enough, the molecules move so much that the hydrogen bonds that hold them together start to break and the water becomes a gas ... water vapor. This your answer unless there are choices.</span>
The final velocity of skater 1 is 3.7 m/s to the right. The right option is O A. 3.7 m/s to the right.
<h3>What is velocity?</h3>
Velocity can be defined as the ratio of the displacement and time of a body.
To calculate the final velocity of Skater 1 we use the formula below.
Formula:
- mu+MU = mv+MV............ Equation 1
Where:
- m = mass of the first skater
- M = mass of the second skater
- u = initial velocity of the first skater
- U = initial velocity of the second skater
- v = final velocity of the first skater
- V = final velocity of the second skater.
make v the subject of the equation.
- v = (mu+MU-MV)/m................ Equation 2
Note: Let left direction represent negative and right direction represent positive.
From the question,
Given:
- m = 105 kg
- u = -2 m/s
- M = 71 kg
- U = 5 m/s
- V = -3.4 m/s.
Substitute these values into equation 2
- v = [(105×(-2))+(71×5)-(71×(-3.4))]/105
- v = (-210+355+241.4)/105
- v = 386.4/105
- v = 3.68 m/s
- v ≈ 3.7 m/s
Hence, the final velocity of skater 1 is 3.7 m/s to the right. The right option is O A. 3.7 m/s to the right.
