Answer:
The final velocity of the composite object is 3.14 m/s.
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass of object 1,
Initial speed of object 1,
Mass of object 2,
Initial speed of object 2,
The two objects stick together. The momentum of two objects before and after remains constant. Let V is the final velocity of the composite object. using the conservation of linear momentum as :
So, the magnitude of final velocity of the composite object is 3.14 m/s.
