Answer:
velocity = 10 m/sec in the same direction as the first body did

Explanation:
The momentum of the body can be calculated as follows:
momentum = mass * velocity

For the first body, we have:
mass = 5 kg
velocity = 2 m/sec
momentum = mass * velocity
momentum = 5 * 2 = 10 kg.m/sec

We know that this momentum is transferred completely to the second body

For the second bode, we have:
momentum = 10 Kg.m/sec
mass = 1 kg
momentum = mass * velocity
10 = 1 * velocity 
velocity = 10/1
velocity = 10 m/sec

Finally, we should get the direction of the motion:
Both the velocity of the first and second bodies have positive values. Therefore, the second body is moving in the same direction as the first body did.

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

3.67m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the law of conservation of momentum which States that the sum of momentum of bodies before collision is equal to the sum of momentum of bodies after collision. This bodies moves with a common velocity after collision.

Momentum = mass × velocity

For the 5kg ball with velocity of 2m/s;

Its momentum = 5×2 = 10kgm/s²

For the 1kg body;

It's momentum = 10kgm/s (since the 5kg mass transfers all of its momentum to a 1 kg mass.)

Momentum after collision of the bodies will give;

Momentum = (5kg+1kg)v where v is their common velocity.

Momentum after collision = 6v

Using the law of conservation of momentum;

10+10 = 6v

20 = 6v

v = 20/6

v = 3.67m/s

Since both masses have the same velocity after collision, the velocity of the 1kg mass after the collision will also be 3.67m/s

Roman55 [17]

Answer: x=100

Step-by-step explanation:

In parallelograms the opposite angles are equal. As the bottom left angle is 80° the opposite angle (top right), is also 80°. All 4 angles in a quadrilateral must add up to 360. Because you know 2 angles added together are 160° the other two angles must equal 200°. As opposite angles are equal you know 2x=200, divide by 2 x=100

Sara is building a triangular pen for her pet rabbit. If two of the sides measure 8 feet and 15 feet, the length of the third si
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

1) 13 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 13+8=21 which is greater than 15. Would be a triangle.

2) 7+8=15   This would be a single line, not a triangle.

3) 3+8<15   This would be a single line, not a triangle.

2) 15+8=23   This would be a single line, not a triangle.
