Question
A trolley and a sandbag have a combined mass of 4 kg. A bullet with a mass of 150 g is fired towards the trolley and is lodged in the sandbag. Immediately after the collision, the trolley and sandbag in combination with the bullet move backwards at 5,3 m·s-1. Calculate the kinetic energy of the trolley, with the sandbag and bullet, directly after the collision. *

Based on the table above, which statement regarding kinetic energy is true? sc.7.P.11.2 The kinetic energy of an object is calculated by multiplying mass times speed. The objects at rest will have more kinetic energy than the objects in motion. C Objects that have the same mass have the same kinetic energy no matter how fast the object moves. When objects travel at the same speed, the more massive object has more kinetic energy. Darrow_forward
