Option(a) the mass of cart 2 is twice that of the mass of cart 1 is the right answer.
The mass of cart 2 is twice that of the mass of cart 1 is correct about the mass of cart 2.
Let's demonstrate the issue using variables:
Let,
m1=mass of cart 1
m2=mass of cart 2
v1 = velocity of cart 1 before collision
v2 = velocity of cart 2 before collision
v' = velocity of the carts after collision
Using the conservation of momentum for perfectly inelastic collisions:
m1v1 + m2v2 = (m1 + m2)v'
v2 = 0 because it is stationary
v' = 1/3*v1
m1v1 = (m1+m2)(1/3)(v1)
m1 = 1/3*m1 + 1/3*m2
1/3*m2 = m1 - 1/3*m1
1/3*m2 = 2/3*m1
m2 = 2m1
From this we can conclude that the mass of cart 2 is twice that of the mass of cart 1.

Answer:
A. absorb heat energy and move farther apart
Explanation:
The answer is A since when a ice cube takes in heat, it changes form and melts down to a liquid : water.
The molecules in water are farther apart since they are moving around alot but can be contained in a container.
Answer:
Explanation:
This is a simple gravitational force problem using the equation:
where F is the gravitational force, G is the universal gravitational constant, the m's are the masses of the2 objects, and r is the distance between the centers of the masses. I am going to state G to 3 sig fig's so that is the number of sig fig's we will have in our answer. If we are solving for the gravitational force, we can fill in everything else where it goes. Keep in mind that I am NOT rounding until the very end, even when I show some simplification before the final answer.
Filling in:
I'm going to do the math on the top and then on the bottom and divide at the end.
and now when I divide I will express my answer to the correct number of sig dig's:
6.45 × 10¹⁶ N
