Asked by PAO
The mass of glider X is 0.2kg and its velocity is 1.5m/s to the right.
The mass of glider Y is 0.3kg and it is stationary.
When glider X collides with glider Y they move off together.
Calculate the velocity of the gliders after the collision and give their direction.

conservation of momentum
massX*1.5= (massX+MassY)V
solve for velocity V
massX*1.5= (massX+MassY)V
solve for velocity V
