Answer:
0.1 m/s
Explanation:
Please see attached photo for explanation.
Mass of 1st cart (m₁) = 500 g
Initial velocity of 1st cart (u₁) = 0.25 m/s
Mass of 2nd cart (m₂) = 750 g
Initial velocity of 2nd cart (u₂) = 0 m/s
Velocity (v) after collision =.?
m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = v(m₁ + m₂)
(500 × 0.25) + (750 × 0) = v(500 + 750)
125 + 0 = v(1250)
125 = 1250v
Divide both side by 1250
v = 125 / 1250
v = 0.1 m/s
Thus, the two cart will move with a velocity of 0.1 m/s after collision.
