Please, can someone urgently help me solve this?
original momentum = 0.05 v
final momentum = (0.05 + 10.00) * 0.5
There are no external forces so
0.05 v = 10.05 * 0.5
solve for v says Newton #1
final momentum = (0.05 + 10.00) * 0.5
There are no external forces so
0.05 v = 10.05 * 0.5
solve for v says Newton #1
