    Rocket Momentum: Help with Questions

    i agree with you. on question 1 and believe that only momentum is conserved. As for question 2, since it asks for inelastic collisions, i guess we have to assume that kinetic energy is not conserved at all.

    Answers to Questions on Work and Energy

    I see you point, then since the The car's kinetic energy decreases. And The energy of the car/road/air system is constant, Can we say that Heat is also generated, since like you said that "energy doesn't just disappear. It is transformed into other forms, such as thermal energy." So heat in...

    Answers to Questions on Work and Energy

    isn't the energy always constant and conserved. So as thr kinetic energy decreases, it becomes (turns) into potential energy and visa versa?

    Answers to Questions on Work and Energy

    In question 4 I think that A) is true, but i don't think that C) is true because i don't believe that "The energy of the car/road/air system is constant," since the question specifies that the car slows down as a result of air friction. Due to air friction i think that choice C) is FALSE.

    Answers to Questions on Work and Energy

    i would think the Kinetic energy decreases since KE=mv2/2, so if velocity decreases shouldn't the KE decrease?
