प्रश्न
State if the following statement is true or false. Give a reason for your answer.
Total energy of a system is always conserved, no matter what internal and external forces on the body are present.
विकल्प
True
False
उत्तर
This statement is False.
Explanation:
Even though internal forces are in equilibrium and do not perform work on a body, it is the external forces that possess the capability to do work. Consequently, external forces can alter the energy state of a system.

A trolley of mass 200 kg moves with a uniform speed of 36 km/h on a frictionless track. A child of mass 20 kg runs on the trolley from one end to the other (10 m away) with a speed of 4 m s–1 relative to the trolley in a direction opposite to the its motion, and jumps out of the trolley. What is the final speed of the trolley? How much has the trolley moved from the time the child begins to run?
