Assume that the small-massed particle is 
and the heavier mass particle is 
.
Now, by momentum conservation and energy conservation:
Now, there are 2 solutions but, one of them is useless to this question's main point so I excluded that point. Ask me in the comments if you want the excluded solution too.
So now, we see that 
and 
. So therefore, the smaller mass recoils out.
Hope this helps you!
Bye!
<span>Answer:
The temperature doesn't affect the evaporation rate, but affects on how much of water a parcel of air can contain when saturated which is known by the absolute humidity. Hurricanes are usually happening when the temperature of the sea water west of the Cape Verde islands is over 27 degrees Celsius. If ahead of the path of a hurricane, the sea water temperature drops then it will be less moisture in the air and perhaps the hurricane will fade out. But it is not as simple. How strong a tropical storm is is relative to the difference of temperture between ground level and the top of the troposphere. The greater the difference, the faster the air will rise and the deeper the pressure will be, forcing surrounding air to rush in, thus forming a hurricane force wind. Then there is the fact that the wet adiabatic lapse rate is about half that of dry air. It means that rising moist air cools down slower and therefore rises higher. Hence water is the true fuel of bad weather. But it can't be isolated from the fact that the difference of temperature must be great too. What we often forget is that the tropopause (the border to the stratosphere) is much higher over the equator and therefore, much colder than e.g. the poles.</span>
D ....Do you remember your teacher going over different physical and chemical reactions....It is a chemical reaction because it will never go back to the previous state...therefore your correct and it is a chemical reaction.
The <span>flow of how a cold pack works on a sprained ankle is based on the second law of thermodynamics which states that energy will flow from a higher to a lower temperature. So your body heat will flow to the cold pack in which you will feel the coldness of the pack.</span>
