Answer: 1.96 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Mass of Professor m_1=113\ kg

Velocity of professor u_1=1.56\ m/s

mass of chair m_2=10\ kg

velocity of chair u_2=6.5\ m/s

Suppose  after the collision, v is the common velocity

Conserving momentum

\Rightarrow m_1u_1+m_2u_2=(m_1+m_2)v\\\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{113\times 1.56+10\times 6.5}{113+10}=\dfrac{241.28}{123}\\\\\Rightarrow v=1.96\ m/s
