a 3 kg piece of putty that is moving with a velocity of 10 m/s collides and sticks to an 8 kg bowling ball that was at rest. wha

defon

The final velocity is 2.7 m/s

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the principle of conservation of momentum: in fact, in absence of external forces, the total momentum of the system must be conserved before and after the collision.

Therefore we can write:

$p_i = p_f\\m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2 = (m_1+m_2)v$

where:

$m_1 = 3 kg$ is the mass of the putty

$u_1 = 10 m/s$ is the initial velocity of the putty (we take its direction as positive direction)

$m_2 = 8 kg$ is the mass of the ball

$u_2 = 0 m/s$ is the initial velocity of the ball (at rest)

$v$ is the final combined velocity of the two putty+ball

Re-arranging the equation and substituting the values, we find the final combined velocity:

$v=\frac{m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2}{m_1+m_2}=\frac{(3)(10)+0}{3+8}=2.7 m/s$

And the positive sign indicates their final direction is the same as the initial direction of the putty.

If the current takes him downstream we must find the resultant vector of the velocities: $V res= \sqrt{1^{2}+0.91^{2} } = \sqrt{1.8281}= 1.3520747$ Then if the river is 3000 m-wide the swimmer will have to pass:
1.3520747 · 300 = 4056.14 m t = 4056.14 m : 1 m/s
a ) It takes 4056.15 seconds ( 1 hour 7 minutes and 36 seconds ) to cross the river.
b ) 0.91 · 3000 = 2730 m
He will be 2730 m downstream.
