The final velocity of the two pucks is -5 m/s
Explanation:
We can solve the problem by using the law of conservation of momentum.
In fact, in absence of external force, the total momentum of the two pucks before and after the collision must be conserved - so we can write:
where
is the mass of each puck
is the initial velocity of the 1st puck
is the initial velocity of the 2nd puck
v is the final velocity of the two pucks sticking together
Re-arranging the equation and solving for v, we find:

Potential energy behind dams
-- Starting from nothing (New Moon), the moon's shape grows ('waxes')
for half of the cycle, until it's full, and then it shrinks ('wanes') for the next
half of the cycle.
-- The moon's complete cycle of phases runs 29.53 days . . . roughly
four weeks.
-- So, beginning from New Moon, it spends about two weeks waxing until
it's full, and then another two weeks waning until it's all gone again.
-- After a Full Moon, the moon is waning for the next two weeks. So it's
definitely <em>waning</em> at <em><u>one week</u></em> after Full.
