The momentum of the second ball was 15 kg.m/s.
<h3>What is inelastic collision?</h3>
In which collision some amount of kinetic energy of the system is lost that called inelastic collision. In purely inelastic collision, two bodies stick together. But principle of conservation of linear momentum is obeyed.
In the given question,
Two balls collide and after collision, the final momentum of the system = 18 kg.m/s.
Initial velocity of 1st ball of mass 3 kg is 1 m/s.
So, Initial momentum of first ball = mass × velocity = (3 kg) × (1 m/s) = 3 kg.m/s.
According to Principle of conservation of linear momentum for this inelastic collision,
Initial momentum of first ball + initial momentum of second ball = final momentum of the system
⇒ initial momentum of second ball = final momentum of the system - Initial momentum of first ball
= 18 kg.m/s - 3 kg.m/s.
= 15 kg.m/s.
Hence, initial momentum of second ball = 15 kg.m/s.

Wood because it is natural and we use it for furniture but we also burn it for energy.
Answer:
stomp???, frictional force
Explanation:
this allow ur foot to be stomp
Sound waves need a medium to go through and are created through vibrations, whereas light waves need no medium, meaning it can move through space. Light also doesn’t loose energy when reflected, but sound waves get absorbed by the medium they go through causing it to loose energy.
