A sphere of mass 25 Kg is moving at a speed of 1.5 m/s undergoes collision with another sphere of mass 50 Kg moving at 3m/s in the same direction, find the common velocity in m/s after collision when the collision is completely inelastic.

A sphere of mass 25 Kg is moving at a speed of 1.5 m/s undergoes collision with another sphere of mass 50 Kg moving at 3m/s in the same direction, find the common velocity in m/s after collision when the collision is completely inelastic. Correct Answer 2.5

Common velocity during inelastic collision is given by m1u1 + m2u2/(m1+ m2) = v substituting the values we get V = 2.5 m/s
