Question

Ender and Shen are flying at each other during a battle in space. Ender moves with a velocity v1 of 12 m/s and Shen, with a mass of 45 kg, moves at a velocity v2 of 9.0 m/s. When the two collide, they hold on to each other and move with a velocity v3 of 6.4 m/s. What is Ender’s mass, in kg?

    Answer:

    Ender’s mass = 2.25 kg

    Explanation:

    using law of conservation of momentum .

    since there is inelastic collision

    given.

    let \ \ m_{1} = m \\m_{2} = 45 kg \\v_{1} = 12 m/s \\v_{2} = 9 m/s \\\\V_{3} =6.4 m/s\\using \ \ \\m_{1}v_{1} + m_{2}v_{2} = (m_{1} +m_{2})V\\m\times12 + 45\times9 = (m+45)\times6.4\\64m -12m = 405 -288\\52m =117\\m =\frac{117}{52}\\m =2.25kg
