Two objects of the same mass travel in opposite directions along a horizontal surface. Object X has a speed of 5ms and object Y has a speed of 5ms, as shown in the figure. After a period of time, object X collides with object Y. In scenario 1, the objects stick together after the collision. In scenario 2, the objects do not stick together after the collision.
Which of the following claims is true regarding how the outcome of scenario 1 is different from the outcome of scenario 2?
A. The total momentum of the system in scenario 1 will be less than that in scenario 2 after the collision.
B. The total momentum of the system in scenario 1 will be more than that in scenario 2 after the collision.
C. The kinetic energy of the system in scenario 1 will be less than that in scenario 2 after the collision.
D. The kinetic energy of the system in scenario 1 will be more than that in scenario 2 after the collision.

An insulated thermos contains 148 g of water at 72.7 ˚c. you put in a 11.7 g ice cube at 0.00 ˚c to form a system of ice + original water. the specific heat of liquid water is 4190 j/kg•k; and the heat of fusion of water is 333 kj/kg. what is the net entropy change of the system from then until the system reaches the final (equilibrium) temperature?
