m1=1500kg
m_2=3000kg
v_1=5m/s
v_2=7m/s

Using law of conservation of momentum

$\\ \sf\Rrightarrow m_1v_1-m_2v_2=(m1+m2)v_3$

$\\ \sf\Rrightarrow 1500(5)-3000(7)=(1500+3000)v_3$

$\\ \sf\Rrightarrow 7500-21000=4500v_3$

$\\ \sf\Rrightarrow -13500=4500v_3$

$\\ \sf\Rrightarrow v_3=-3m/s$

Neko [114]

Explanation:

As per Rayleigh criterion, the angular resolution is given as follows:

$\theta=\frac{1.22 \lambda}{D}$

From this expression larger the size of aperture, smaller will be the value of angular resolution and hence, better will be the device i.e. precision for distinguishing two points at very high angular difference is higher.
