A 2 kg ball of putty moving to the right at 3 m/s has a perfectly inelastic, head-on collision with a 1 kg ball of putty moving

at 2 m/s. What is the final magnitude and direction (left or right) of the velocity of the balls after the collision?

Answer:

V=1.33m/s   to the right

Explanation:

The balls collide in a completely inelastic collision, in other words they have the same velocity after the collision, this velocity has a magnitude V.

We need to use the conservation of momentum Law, the total momentum is the same before and after the collision.

In the axis X:

m_{1}*v_{o1}-m_{2}*v_{o2}=(m_{1}+m_{2})V     (1)

V=(m_{1}*v_{o1}-m_{2}*v_{o2})/(m_{1}+m_{2})=(2*3-1*2)/(2+1)=1.33m/s

Two cars are moving in the same direction at the same speed of (72.0 kmh). What is
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

0 km/h

Explanation:

Relative speed is the speed of a moving body with respect to another.

When two bodies move in the same direction then the relative speed is calculated as difference of their speeds.

In this case;

The two cars have the same speed. The relative speed will be;

72 km/h -72 km/h = 0 km/h
