Two blocks of ice, one four times as heavy as the other, are at rest on a frozen lake. A person pushes each block the same distance d. Ignore friction and assume that an equal force is exerted on each block. Which of the following statements is true about the kinetic energy of the heavier block after the push?

The kinetic energy of the heavier block after the push is equal to the kinetic energy of the lighter block

Explanation:

Kinetic energy of smaller object

where m= mass of smaller object and v= velocity of smaller object

Also, it is given that heavier object is four times the mass of lighter object and consider its velocity as V

kinetic energy of heavier block

Now, For smaller block ,

[by Newtons laws of motion]

Also,

Where S= displacement, F= force, u= initial velocity

So,

For heavier block ,

or,  

So,

Therefore the kinetic energy of the heavier block after the push is equal to the kinetic energy of the lighter block

explanation:

the masses of the objects and the distance between them

answer:   you might love summer weather, but you don’t want it to feel like the sun is inside your car. but a hot car that just won’t seem to cool down might be a bigger of a problem than you think. your car relies on being at the right temperature.
