It’s literally in your reading go re reas
The basic relationship between voltage, resistance and current of an electrical device is given by Ohm's law:

where
V is the voltage
I is the current
R is the resistance
The hot plate in our problem is connected to a source of V=120 V and it has a resistance of

, therefore we can rearrange the previous equation to calculate the current through the device:
We can use conservation of momentum. MaVa + MbVb = (Ma+Mb)Vf.
Plugging in values:
(.115)(35) + (.265)0 = (.380)(Vf)
Now solve for Vf.
Vf= .115*35 / .380 = 10.6 m/s
