Opposite to the direction of the velocity which led it to its current position.
Explanation:
The direction of momentum when a vertically oscillating block comes to the rest momentarily will be opposite to the direction of the velocity that it has just followed to reach reach its current position.
The direction of change in momentum at the bottom will be upwards and at the top will be downwards.
The change in momentum is mathematically defined as:

where:
mass of the block
final velocity of the block
initial velocity of the block
When the block comes to rest it is due to the result of continuously decreasing velocity.
At the top, due to the fact that POTENTIAL energy is Stored energy.
<h2>Answer</h2>
1m/s
<h2>Explanation</h2>
Given that:
<em>Mass of first blob = 2kg = m1</em>
<em>Velocity of blob = 4m/s = v1</em>
<em>Mass of second blob = 6kg = m2</em>
<em>Velocity of blob = 0m/s = v2</em>
<em />
To find:
<em>Final velocity = Vf</em>
<em />
<em>This question is of inelastic collision which is any collision between objects in which some energy is lost.</em>
<em />
<h3>Formula to be use:</h3><h2>(m1*v1) + (m2*V2) = Vf(m1 + m2)</h2>
(2*4) + (6*0) = Vf(2+6)
8 + 0 = Vf(8)
8 = Vf(8)
Vf = 1 m/s
So the speed of two blobs immediately after colliding = 1 m/s
Answer:
it increases I think.........
