Their final velocity  is 0.48 m/s.


We can use conservation of momentum to calculate the magnitude of the final velocity.


Momentum before collision is equal to the momentum after collision


m1v1+m2v2=(m1+m2)v


here, v is final velocity , assuming right side velocity as positive, and left side velocity as negative.


14*(-1.1)+18*(0)=(14+18)v


v=-0.48 m/s


Here, negative sign indicates that they both  will move in left direction.

How is fabric made from fur different from fabric made of hair?
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

The principal hair fiber used to produce textile fabrics is sheep's wool. In wild sheep, the wool is a short, soft underlayer protected by longer, coarser hair. ... Fur fibers from animals such as mink and beavers are sometimes blended with other hairs to spin luxury yarns but are most often found as fur pelts.

the distance between the sun and earth is about 1.5*10^11m. express this distance with an SI prefix and in kilometer
Tpy6a [65]
In scientific notation, if the exponent of 10 is positive, the number is very very large. In the metric system, very large numbers are expressed in megameters (Mm) or gigameters (Gm). Gigameters is equal to 10⁹ meters. So, in SI prefix, that would be equal to 150 Gm. In kilometers, that would be equal to:

1.5×10¹¹ m * (1 km/1000 m) = 1.5×10⁸ km
