A ball of mass m₁ = 50g is moving with velocity 5m/s and another ball of mass 100g is moving in opposite direction with 8 m/s velocity. If they stick together and moves with common velocity find it ? *



SolutionApplying conservation of momentum formuls we haveInitial momentum of the system = Final momentum of the system501000kg×5+1001000kg×(-8)=501000+1001000×v0.05×5+0.1×-8=0.15×v0.15v=0.25-0.8v=-0.550.15=-3.66m/s (common velocity)Negative sign shows that velocity will be in the direction of initial direction of 100g ball.
