A team of students conducts a series of experiments to investigate collisions. In the first experiment, the two carts collide with each other on a smooth surface. The carts stick together and continue to move forward. In the second experiment, the two carts collide with each other on a rough surface. The carts stick together and quickly come to rest. In both experiments, the initial speeds of the carts are identical. Is there a difference in the total energy of the two experiments?

An object is 10. cm from the mirror, its height is 3.0 cm, and the focal length is 2.0 cm. what is the image height? (indicate the object orientation by including the + or - sign with the answer.) hi = cm +1.33 -1.33 +0.75 -0.75

While studying chemical reactions and conservation of matter, sarah's class conducted a variety of experiments. sarah and her lab partner found the mass of a wax candle and placed the candle in a flask. the students lit the candle and let it burn to completion. all that was left was wax and charred candle wick. per their teacher's instructions, the students found the mass of the products. their data can be seen in the data table. formulate a hypothesis the students could test to explain why the experiment did not support the law of conservation of matter. a) the students could repeat the experiment using different candles; there might have been a flaw in the candle. b) the experiment should be repeatable. the students should run several trials and then take an average of the after mass in each trial. c) the students should have someone in the class check their measurement skills as they repeat the experiment. they may have made an error using the balance. d) the students should burn the candle in a container that has some type of lid so that any gas that is a product of the reaction can be contained and massed. submit

When the displacement of a mass on a spring is 12a the half of the amplitude, what fraction of the mechanical energy is kinetic energy? at what displacement, as a fraction of a, is the mechanical energy half kinetic and half potential?
