Verdah, Hetav and Dhinesh are undertaking an investigation into the motion of wooden blocks in their Physics class. Their aim is to determine the effect that mass has on the horizontal motion of the wooden block across a table.
Verdah suggests that they use a launcher to give both blocks the same initial velocity and that they use the same table for each trial.
The blocks are made from the same wood but have different masses. The mass of block A (m1) is twice the mass of block B (m2). The coefficient of friction between the blocks and the table is u.
a. Hetav hypothesises that block A will travel a greater distance across the table before coming to rest. WITHOUT using an equation provide an explanation for Hetav's hypothesis.
b. Dhinesh disagrees with Hetav and states that block B will travel a greater distance before coming to rest. WITHOUT using an equation provide an explanation for Dhinesh's hypothesis.
c. Derive a mathematical expression that the students could use to find the distance block A travels after it leaves the launcher. Upload a copy of your HANDWRITTEN working clearly identifying all equations and constants used in your derivation. Make sure your name is visible next to your working.
d. Using the equation derived in part c to support your answer, justify if Hetav or Dhinesh was correct in their hypothesis.

In a stagnant pool of water, a crayfish may spend much of its time lying with one side of its carapace near the surface of the water. in this position, it will move the walking legs on that side in a rhythmic back-and-forth motion. explain the likely function of this behavior.
