Answer:
B) 10/3 (left)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Mass of 1st body (m1)= 10kg
Mass of 2nd object (m2) = 5kg
Velocity of 1st body (v1)= 5m/s
Velocity of 2nd body(v2)=20m/s
Momentum of first body(p1)= m1×v1
= 10kg ×5m/s
= 50kg.m/s
And, momentum of second body(p2)= m2×v2
= 5kg×20m/s
=100kg.m/s
Now, on collision, resultant momentum(p3)
= m2v2-m1v1
=100kg.m/s - 50kg.m/s
= 50kg.m/s
And, new mass(m3) = m1+m2.
[As two bodies stick with each other on collision]
=10kg+5kg
=15kg
Now, the new momentum(p3) =m3× velocity(v3)
=> 50kg.m/s = 15kg× v3
=> (50kg.m/s)/15kg= v3
=> v3= 10/3m/s
Asmomentum of 2nd body was more. So, the bodies after collision will move to left.
So, option (b) is correct.
