The options are not provided, so i will answer in a general way.
We know that:
The movement is along a straight horizontal surface, then we have one-dimensional motion.
The speed is 2m/s
We want a graph of position vs time.
Now, remember the relation:
Distance = Speed*Time
Then we can write the position as a function of time as:
P(t) = 2m/s*t + P0
Where t is our variable, that represents time in seconds, and P0 is the position at time t = 0seconds, we can assume that this is zero.
Then the equation is:
P(t) = 2m/s*t
And the graph is something like:
Let the mass of 2500 kg car be and it's velocity be
and the mass of 1500 kg car be
and it's velocity be
.
After the bumping the mass be M and it's velocity be V.
By law of conservation of momentum we have
2500 * 5 + 1500 * 1=4000 * V
V = 14000/4000 = 7/2 = 3.5 m/s
So the velocity of the two-car train = 3.5 m/s
