Answer:
The speed of the cart and clay after the collision is 50 cm/s .
Explanation:
Given :
Mass of lump , m = 500 g = 0.5 kg .
Velocity of lump , v = 30 cm/s .
Mass of cart , M = 1 kg .
Velocity of cart , V = 60 cm/s .
We know by conservation of momentum :
Here , is the speed of the cart and clay after the collision .
Putting all value in above equation .
We get :
Hence , this is the required solution .
The freezing point is the same as the melting point.
If it freezes at -58°C, hence the melting point is also <span>-58°C.</span>
1. The balls move to the opposite direction but the same speed. This represents Newton's third law of motion.
2. The total momentum before and after the collision stays constant or is conserved.
3. If the masses were the same, the velocities of both balls after the collision would exchange.
4 and 5. Use momentum balance to solve for the final velocities.
