Perfectly inelastic collision is type of collision during which two objects collide, stay connected and momentum is conserved. Formula used for conservation of momentum is:

m_{1} * v_{1} +  m_{2} * v_{2} =  m_{1} * v'_{1} +  m_{2} * v'_{2}

In case of perfectly inelastic collision v'1 and v'2 are same.

We have following information:
m₁=3 kg
m₂=? kg
v₁=x m/s
v₂=0 m/s
v'1 = v'2 = 1/3 * v₁

Now we insert given information and solve for m₂:
3*v₁ + 0*? = 3*1/3*v₁ + m₂*1/3*v₁
3v₁ = v₁ + m₂*1/3*v₁
2v₁ = m₂*1/3*v₁
2 = m₂*1/3
m₂= 6kg

Mass of second mud ball is 6kg.

When a 58g tennis ball is served, it accelerates from rest to a constant speed of 36 m/s. The impact with the racket gives the b
inysia [295]
We first calculate the acceleration on the ball using:
2as = v² - u²; u = 0 because ball is initially at rest
a = (36)²/(2 x  0.35)
a = 1850 m/s²
F = ma
F = 0.058 x 1850
= 107.3 Newtons
