Answer:
Momentum after collision will be 6000 kgm/sec
Explanation:
We have given mass of the whale = 1000
Initial velocity v = 6 m/sec
It collides with other mass of 200 kg which is at stationary
Initial momentum of the whale = 1000×6 = 6000 kgm/sec
We have to find the momentum after collision
From conservation of momentum
Initial momentum = final momentum
So final momentum = 6000 kgm/sec
This would be B, 5cm/sec.
To get this answer you would need to divided 25 which is how large the ramp is, and 5 seconds, the amount of time it took to travel down the ramp.
