The speed of the pin after the elastic collision is 9 m/s east.
<h3>
Final speed of the pin</h3>
The final speed of the pin is calculated by applying the principle of conservation of linear momentum as follows;
m1u1 + mu2 = m1v1 + m2v2
where;
- m is the mass of the objects
- u is the initial speed of the objects
- v is the final speed of the objects
4(1.4) + 0.4(0) = 4(0.5) + 0.4v2
5.6 = 2 + 0.4v2
5.6 - 2 = 0.4v2
3.6 = 0.4v2
v2 = 3.6/0.4
v2 = 9 m/s
Thus, The speed of the pin after the elastic collision is 9 m/s east.

You are trying to convert mass to volume. That ain't working
It could possibly melt things
