An object of mass 3 kg, moving with and sticks to an object of mass 2.00 kg with an initial velocity of 3.00 m/s. Find the final velocity of the composite object.

Respuesta :

Answer:

1.8 m/s

Explanation:

momentum = mass × velocity

initial momentum = m1v1+m2v2

                             = 3×3 +2×0 = 9+0= 9 kg m/s

let combined velocity be V

HENCE  

final momentum = total mass × velocity

                            = (3+2) × V = 5V

According to law of conservation of momentum

final momentum = initial momentum

5V = 9

V =9/5

V = 1.8 m/s
