Here we have perfectly inelastic collision. Perfectly inelastic collision is type of collision during which two objects collide, stay connected and momentum is conserved. Formula used for conservation of momentum is:

In case of perfectly inelastic collision v'1 and v'2 are same.
We are given information:
m₁=0.5kg
m₂=0.8kg
v₁=3m/s
v₂=2m/s
v'₁=v'₂=x
0.5*3 + 0.8*2 = 0.5*x + 0.8*x
1.5 + 1.6 = 1.3x
3.1 = 1.3x
x = 2.4 m/s
Answer:
n1 sin θ1 = n2 sin θ2 Snell's Law (θ1 is the angle of incidence)
sin θ2 = n1 / n2 * sin θ1
sin θ2 = 2.4 / 1.33 * sin θ1
sin θ2 = 1.80 * .407 = .734
θ2 = 47.2 deg
If the boat is floating, then it's just sitting there, and not accelerating
up or down. That means the vertical forces on it must be balanced.
So if its weight (acting downward) is 100 newtons, then the buoyant
force on it (acting upward) must also be 100 newtons.
Because of the rule of mask.
