The final velocity of the block A will be 2.5 m/sec. The principal of the momentum conversation is used in the given problem.

<h3>What is the law of conservation of momentum?</h3>

According to the law of conservation of momentum, the momentum of the body before the collision is always equal to the momentum of the body after the collision.

In a given concern, mass m₁ is M, mass m₂ is 3M. Initial speed for the mass m₁ and  m₂ will be u₁=5 and u₂=0 m/s respectively,

According to the law of conservation of momentum

Momentum before collision =Momentum after collision

m₁u₁+m₂u₂=(m₁+m₂)v

M×5+3M×0=[M+3M]v

The final velocity is found as;

V=51.25 m/s

The velocity of block A is found as;

\rm V_f=\frac{(m_1-m_2)u_1}{m_1+m_2} +\frac{2m_2u_2}{m_1+m_2} \\\\  V_f=\frac{(M-3M)5+2\times3M\times0}{m_1+m_2} \\\\ V_f=2.5 m/s

Hence, the final velocity of the block A will be 2.5 m/sec.
