Two manned satellites approaching one another, at a relative speed of 0.500 m/s, intending to dock. The first has a mass of 2.00 ✕ 103 kg, and the second a mass of 7.50 ✕ 103 kg.

(a) Calculate the final velocity (after docking) in m/s by using the frame of reference in which the first satellite was originally at rest. (Assume the second satellite moves in the positive direction. Include the sign of the value in your answer.) m/s

(b) What is the loss of kinetic energy (in J) in this inelastic collision? J

(c) Repeat both parts by using the frame of reference in which the second satellite was originally at rest. final velocity (m/s) m/s loss of kinetic energy (J) J Explain why the change in velocity is different in the two frames, whereas the change in kinetic energy is the same in both.

The energy released by a chemical reaction can be measured using a calorimeter. when barium hydroxide octahydrate crystals are reacted with dry ammonium chloride inside of a coffee cup calorimeter, the temperature of the 18.00 g of water in the calorimeter decreases from 30.0°c to 8.0°c. the equation for calculating energy absorbed or released by a reaction is: where q is the energy released or absorbed, m is the mass of water in the calorimeter, cp is the specific heat of water, and δt is the observed temperature change. if the specific heat of liquid water is 4.19 j/g·°c, how much energy was absorbed by the reaction?
