Answer:
v=0.60 m/s
Explanation:
Given that
m ₁= 390 kg ,u ₁= 0.5 m/s
m₂ = 250 kg ,u₂ = 0.76 m/s
As we know that if there is no any external force on the system the total linear momentum of the system will be conserve.
Pi = Pf
m ₁u ₁+m₂u₂ = (m₂ + m ₁ ) v
Now putting the values in the above equation
390 x 0.5 + 250 x 0.76 = (390 + 250 ) v
[tex]v=\dfrac{390\times 0.5+250\times 0.76}{390+250}\ m/s[/tex]
v=0.60 m/s
Therefore the velocity of the system will be 0.6 m/s.
