\qquad\qquad\huge\underline{{\sf Answer}}♨

Heat capacity of body 1 :

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:m_1s_1

Heat capacity of body 2 :

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:m_2s_2

it's given that, the the head capacities of both the objects are equal. I.e

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:m_1s_1 = m_2s_2

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:m_1 =  \dfrac{m_2s_2}{s_1}

Now, consider specific heat of composite body be s'

According to given relation :

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:(m_1 + m_2) s' = m_1s_1 + m_2s_2

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:s' = \dfrac{ m_1s_1 + m_2s_2}{m_1 + m_2}

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:s' = \dfrac{ m_2s_2+ m_2s_2}{ \frac{m_2s_2}{s_1} + m_2 }

[ since, m_2s_2 = m_1s_1 ]

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:s' = \dfrac{ 2m_2s_2}{ m_2(\frac{s_2}{s_1} + 1)}

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:s' = \dfrac{ 2 \cancel{m_2}s_2}{  \cancel{m_2}(\frac{s_2}{s_1} + 1)}

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:s' = \dfrac{ 2 s_2}{  (\frac{s_2 + s_1}{s_1} )}

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: s' =  \dfrac{2s_1s_2}{s_1 + s_2}

Answer:

<u>Kinematics is a subfield of physics, developed in classical mechanics, that describes the motion of points, bodies, and systems of bodies without considering the forces that cause them to move.</u>
