Answer: 1.6m/s

Explanation:

M1 = 13500kg

U1 = 4.5m/s

M2 = 25000kg

U2 = 0m/s (since the body is at rest)

V = ? (Common velocity or velocity after impact)

M1U1 + M2U2 = (M1 + M2)V

But U2 = 0

M1U1 = (M1 + M2)V

13500 * 4.5 = (13500 + 25000)v

60750 = 38500v

V = 60750 / 38500 = 1.5779 = 1.6m/s

you ride your bike for a distance of 30km. you travel ata a speed of 0.75km/minute.how many minutes does it take
mihalych1998 [28]
Distance for which the bike is ridden = 30 km
Speed at which the bike is driven = 0.75 km/minute
Let us assume the number of minutes taken to travel the distance of 30 km = x
Now we already know the formula of speed can be written as
Speed = Distance traveled/ Time taken
0.75 = 30/x
0.75x = 30
x = 30/0.75
  = 40 minutes
So the time taken for riding a distance of 30 km will be 40 minutes. I hope this procedure is simple enough for you to understand.
