In water heat travels up much faster than it travels down. explain.

A23 kg log of wood begins from rest, 300 m up a sluice (a water track used to transport logs, think of it as an inclined plane with negligible friction) inclined at 20° to the horizontal. after it reaches the flat waterway at the bottom it collides elastically with a 100 kg block of wood initially at rest near the base of the incline. (a) how long does it take the 23 kg log to travel down the incline? (b) what is the speed of the 23 kg log at the bottom of the incline? (c) what are the velocities of both blocks of wood after the collision? (d) what is the total kinetic energy before the collision? (e) what is the kinetic energy of the 23 kg log after the collision? (f) what is the kinetic energy of the 100 kg block of wood after the collision? (g) what is the total kinetic energy after the collision? (h) compare the total initial and total final kinetic energies. is this consistent with what you would expect for elastic collisions? explain!

Velocity is a description of both speed and direction, therefore it - a vector - a force arrow - the same as acceleration - a magnitude

In all trials, the magnitude of the final velocity for g1 + g2 was less than the magnitude of any initial velocity. as mass increased, what happened to the velocity? the velocity decreased. the velocity increased. the velocity of g1 + g2 could not be measured. the velocity was not affected by the mass increase.
