Question 20

Multiple Choice

Suppose a 1.0kg1.0-\mathrm{kg} object traveling rightward at 1.0 m/s1.0 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s} hits a 3.0 kg3.0 \mathrm{~kg} object at rest. Afterward, we observe the lighter object to move leftward with a speed of 0.75 m/s0.75 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s} . What impulse did the collision interaction give the smaller object at the expense of the larger?


A) None; the larger object was at rest and so had no momentum to give the smaller object.
B) None; the smaller object gave an impulse to larger, not the other way around.
C) 0.75 kgm/s0.75 \mathrm{~kg} \cdot \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s} leftward.
D) 1.0 kgm/s1.0 \mathrm{~kg} \cdot \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s} leftward.
E) 1.75 kgm/s1.75 \mathrm{~kg} \cdot \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s} leftward.
