Two objects, \( A \) and \( B \), move toward one another. Object \( A \) has twice the mass and half the speed of object \( B \). Which of the following describes the forces the objects exert on each other when they collide and provides the best explanation?
A horizontal force of \(110 \, \text{N}\) is applied to a \(12 \, \text{kg}\) object, moving it \(6 \, \text{m}\) on a horizontal surface where the kinetic friction coefficient is \(\mu_k = 0.25\). The object then slides up a \(17^\circ\) inclined plane. Assuming the \(110 \, \text{N}\) force is no longer acting on the incline, and the coefficient of kinetic friction there is \(\mu_k = 0.45\), calculate the distance the object will slide on the incline.
Two disks, A and B, each experience a net external torque that varies over an interval of \( 5 \) \( \text{s} \). Disk B has a rotational inertia that is twice that of Disk A. The graph shown represents the angular momentum of the two disks as functions of time between \( t = 0 \) \( \text{s} \) and \( t = 5 \) \( \text{s} \). The average magnitudes of the net torques exerted on disks A and B from \( t = 0 \) \( \text{s} \) to \( t = 5 \) \( \text{s} \) are \( \tau_A \) and \( \tau_B \), respectively. Which of the following expressions correctly relates the magnitudes of the average torques?
