Answer:

1.74 m/s

Explanation:

From the question, we are given that the mass of the an object, m1= 2.7 kilogram(kg) and the mass of the can,m(can) is 0.72 Kilogram (kg). The velocity of the mass of an object(m1) , V1 is 1.1 metre per seconds(m/s) and the velocity of the mass of can[m(can)], V(can) is unknown- this is what we are to find.

Therefore, using the formula below, we can calculate the speed of the can, V(can);

===> Mass of object,m1 × velocity of object, V1 = mass of the can[m(can)] × velocity is of the can[V(can)].----------------------------------------------------(1).

Since the question says the collision was elastic, we use the formula below

Slotting in the given values into the equation (1) above, we have;

1/2×M1×V^2(initial velocity of the first object) + 1/2 ×M(can)×V^2(final velocy of the first object)= 1/2 × M1 × V^2 m( initial velocity of the first object).

Therefore, final velocity of the can= 2M1V1/M1+M2.

==> 2×2.7×1.1/ 2.7 + 0.72.

The velocity of the can after collision = 1.74 m/s

When was the last volcanic eruption in the world? what is the name of the volcano?
Vitek1552 [10]
Well, to be honest, there is no official way to find out which volcano erupted recently as scientists don't have that type of equipment ready or in use at all; also there is no official way [...] because there are always eruptions occurring.

If you want the most known, "Calbuco" is your answer. It erupted in 2014 and it is found in Chile.
