Answer:
32.5 ms⁻¹
Explanation:
<em><u>Theory
</u></em>
<u>
The law of conservation of linear momentum
</u>
The sum of linear momentum of a system under no external force remains constant.
In this scenario although different forces act on two vehicles by each other when we consider the total system of two cars no external unbalance force act on them. So we can apply this law.
As law says,
The sum of linear momentum before collision = The sum of linear momentum after collision.
Momentum = mass × velocity
1000×40+3000×35 = 1000×v + 3000×37.5
where v = velocity of the red car after the cash
v = 32.5 ms⁻¹
The answers would be:
3. Atoms cannot be broken down into smaller pieces (or indivisible)
4. All atoms of an element are identical.
5. Chemical reactions cause atoms to be rearranged.
Although all of the statements regarding atoms are true, because of the technology during Dalton's time, the others were not yet discovered. As time progressed modifications were made which built our modern atomic theory.
