A 0.24 kg mass with a speed of 0.60 m/s has a head-on collision with a 0.26 kg mass that is traveling in the opposite direction

at a speed of 0.20 m/s. Assuming that the collision is perfectly inelastic, what is the final speed of the combined masses?

The  final speed of the combined masses is 0.186m/s

According to the law of collision, the sum of the momentum of the bodies before the collision is equal to the momentum after the collision.

Mathematically;

m1u1 - m2u2 = (m1+m1)v

  • v is the final speed of the combined masses.

Substituting the given parameters;

0.24(0.6) - 0.26(0.2) = (0.24+0.26)v

0.144 - 0.052 = 0.5v

0.092 = 0.5v

v = 0.092/0.5

v = 0.184m/s

Hence the final speed of the combined masses is 0.186m/s

NARA [144]

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

Along some shorelines, incoming waves cause the water to simply rise and fall and not form surfs because of the steepness of the shorelines. Long period waves wont form surfs at steep shores because of the breaking and unstability of waves. Wave breaks at the shallow waters. The breaking of the waves depends upon H/L ratio.
