A 1.0-kg block and a 2.0-kg block are pressed together on a horizontal frictionless surface with a compressed very light spring between them. They are not attached to the spring. After they are released and have both moved free of the spring
 
  A) the magnitude of the momentum of the heavier block will be greater than the magnitude of the momentum of the lighter block.
  B) the heavier block will have more kinetic energy than the lighter block.
  C) both blocks will both have the same amount of kinetic energy.
  D) the lighter block will have more kinetic energy than the heavier block.
  E) both blocks will have equal speeds.

Question 2

There are major differences in the metabolism of morphine and the illegal drug heroin. Morphine mostly produces its CNS effects through m-receptors, and at k- and d-receptors. Heroin has a slight affinity for opiate receptors. Most of its actions are due to metabolism to active metabolites (6-acetylmorphine, morphine, and morphine-6-glucuronide).
