A student watched a person fire an old cannon. The student noticed the cannonball moved with a very high velocity to the right and the cannon moved very slowly to the left.
Which statement BEST explains the student's observations?
The total momentum of the system was zero before the cannon was fired. Since momentum was conserved, the cannonball's momentum and the cannon's momentum must have been equal in magnitude but opposite in direction
The total kinetic energy of the system was zero before the cannon was fired, so the cannonball and cannon must have had equal and opposite amounts of kinetic energy.
The cannon gave most of its momentum to the cannonball, so the cannonball gained more speed than the cannon.
The cannon gave most of its momentum to the cannonball, so the cannonball gained more speed than the cannon

What else should her drawing include and why?A student is drawing a free body diagram for the following scenario: "A penguin accelerates by sliding down an icy hill on its belly."
What else should her drawing include and why/
A.It should include an arrow pointing down along the ramp, because the force of inertia pulls the penguin down the ramp
B.It should include an arrow pointing straight up, because the normal force of the hill is the reaction force to gravity.
C.It should include an arrow pointing down along the ramp, because the force of friction pulls the penguin down the ramp.
D.It should include an arrow pointing upward, perpendicular to the ramp, because the normal force represents the support force of the surface.

Students were tasked with dropping a 0.2 kg bag of marbles straight down into a 1.0 kg toy cart moving at 3.0 m/s. The students compare the velocity of the cart before and after the marbles are dropped.
How did the addition of the bag of marbles affect the velocity of the cart?
The Cart's velocity stayed constant because the 0.20 kg bag was small when compared to the 1.0 kg mass of the cart.
The cart slowed down because it now contained more mass. The momentum of a closed, isolated system is always constant
The cart's velocity stayed constant. Since the bag fell straight down, the force it exerted was perpendicular to the horizontal motion of the cart.
