Question

find the expression of velocity of combined body after inelastic collision​

Answer 1

The final velocity can be found for the combined paintball and can by rearranging the formula:





➡The mass of the paintball is 0.200 g, which is equal to 0.000200 kg, and the mass of the can is 15.0 g, which is equal to 0.015 kg. The initial velocity of the paintball is 90.0 m/s. The can starts at rest, so its initial velocity is 0.0 m/s. 1.18 m/s

After the collision, the velocity of the paintball and can together is 1.18 m/s.
