Explanation:
The full solution can be found in the attachment below. The east has been chosen as the direction for positivity.
This problem involves the principle of momentum conservation. This principle states that the total momentum before collision is equal to the total momentum after collision. This problem is an inelastic kind of collision for which the momentum is conserved but the kinetic energy is not. The kinetic energy after collision is always lesser than that before collision. The balance is converted into heat by friction, and also sound energy.
See attachment below for full solution.
