A body of mass 22kg moving with velocity of 5m/s collides with a stationary body of mas 500g. if the two bodies move together after impact. calculate the magnitude of their common velocity

Answer 1

m1=22kg
u1=5m/s
m2=500g=0.5kg
u2=0m/s
v=v1+v2m/s
m1u1+m2u2=m1v+m2v
m1u1+m2u2=v(m1+m2)
22*5*0.5*0=v(22+0.5)
110=22+0.5v
v=110/22.5=4.888888
v=4.9m/s

Answer 2

v=4.9m/s

Answer 3

V=4.9m/s
