Be careful when you type in units!!
Because the question asks, "what is their "common" velocity immediately after the collision?", I assume they are stuck together. Momentum = Mass * velocity
Think about a heavy object sitting still. Could you move this heavy object by throwing a light object at the heavy object, very fast? Is it possible? That is the theory behind momentum.
Momentum is conserved, so the total momentum of both objects before collision = the total momentum of both objects after collision.
Ma* Va (initial) + Mb*Vb (initial) = (Ma + Mb) * Vtotal(final)
Ma = 1000 kg
Va (initial) = 25 m/s
Mb = 1500 kg
Vb (initial) = 0 (at rest)
(Ma+ Mb) 2500 kg
Vtotal(final) = ?
Substitute the values of the variables into the equation and solve for
Ma* Va (initial) + Mb*Vb (initial) = (Ma + Mb) * Vtotal(final)
(1000 kg) * (25 m/s) + (1500 kg) * ( 0 m/s) = (2500 kg) * Vtotal(final)
Vtotal(final) = (37,500 Kg*m/s ) ÷ (2500 kg)
Vtotal(final) = answer is between 10 m/s and 20 m/s.

When a large object collided with earth debris from the collision was ejected into orbit and initially formed?
When a large object collides with Earth, debris is ejected into orbit and can initially form a debris field or a ring system around the planet. Over time, this debris can combine and accrete to form moons, such as how our own Moon is believed to have formed from debris generated by a collision with a Mars-sized object early in Earth's history.
What has been the role of zoos throughout the history of Western culture?
Zoos in Western culture have served various roles, including entertainment, education, conservation, and scientific research. Initially, they were seen as places of wonder and spectacle, but have since evolved to focus more on conservation efforts and animal welfare. Zoos aim to inspire appreciation for wildlife and promote stewardship of the natural world.
What is a virus that doesn't immediately effect a hosts cell functions?
One example of a virus that doesn't immediately affect a host cell's function is the herpesvirus. After initially infecting cells, herpesvirus can remain dormant in the host's body for years without causing symptoms. It can later reactivate and cause disease.
Do you have to get rushed to the hospital if you get struck by lightning?
Yes, it is recommended to seek medical attention after being struck by lightning, even if you feel fine initially. Lightning strikes can cause internal injuries that may not be immediately apparent, so it is important to get checked by healthcare professionals.
Why doesn't a wall immediately acquire a white colour when a coating of slaked lime is applied on it?
When slaked lime is applied to a wall, it doesn't immediately appear white because the coating undergoes a chemical reaction known as carbonation. Initially, the slaked lime (calcium hydroxide) is a wet paste and may appear off-white or gray. As it reacts with carbon dioxide in the air, it forms calcium carbonate, which is white. This reaction takes time, leading to the eventual brightening of the surface.
In an isolated system two cars each with a mass of 2500 kg collide. Car 1 is initially at rest while Car 2 was moving at 20 ms. What is their speed after the collision?
10 m/s
If the mass at the top of the plane is initially at a height of above the horizontal plane what is the velocity of m after the collision?
The velocity of mass m after the collision will depend on the conservation of momentum. If the system is isolated and no external forces act on it, the momentum before the collision will equal the momentum after the collision. So, you will need to calculate the initial momentum of the system and then use it to find the final velocity of m.
In an isolated system two cars each with a mass of 2500 kg c ollide Car 1 is initially at rest while Car 2 was moving at 20 m's What is their speed after the collision?
The speed of each car after the collision depends on how the collision occurs. If it is an elastic collision, both cars will move with different speeds, determined by the conservation of momentum and kinetic energy principles. If it is an inelastic collision, the cars will move together at a speed determined by the conservation of momentum principle. More information is needed to calculate the final speeds accurately.
In an isolated system two cars each with a mass of 1500 kg collide. Car 1 is initially at rest while Car 2 was moving at 5 ms. What is their combined momentum after the collision?
Law of Conservation of Momentum: The total momentum after the collision is equal to the total momentum before the collission.
What are Four different collision scenarios of conservation of momentum?
Elastic collision: objects bound against each other after the collision. - One is moving and the other is at rest. - Both objects are moving. Inelastic collision: objects stick together after the collision. - One is moving and the other is at rest. - Both objects are moving.
When a large object collided with earth debris from collision was ejected into orbit and initially formed a?

A piece of putty moving with 1 unit of momentum strikes to a heavy bowling ball that is initially at rest After the putty sticks to the ball both are set in motion with a combined momentum that is?
equal to the initial momentum of the putty. This is based on the principle of conservation of linear momentum, which states that the total momentum before a collision is equal to the total momentum after the collision, assuming no external forces are acting on the system.
In an isolated system two cars each with a mass of 1000 kg collide Car 1 is initially at rest while Car 2 was moving at 10 ms They move off together What is their speed?
Their speed after the collision would be 5 m/s. This can be calculated using the principle of conservation of momentum, which states that the total momentum before the collision is equal to the total momentum after the collision in an isolated system. Since Car 1 was initially at rest (0 m/s) and Car 2 was moving at 10 m/s, their total momentum before the collision would be m * v = 1000 kg * 10 m/s = 10000 kg⋅m/s. After the collision, this total momentum would be divided between the two cars, resulting in a speed of 5 m/s for the combined system.
In an isolated system two car each with a mass of 1000 kg collide Car 1 is initially at rest while Car 2 was moving at 10 ms They move off together What is their speed?
Their speed after the collision can be calculated using the principle of conservation of momentum. The total momentum before the collision (0 for Car 1 and 10000 kg*m/s for Car 2) is equal to the total momentum after the collision (final speed * total mass). By solving for the final speed, you can find that their speed after the collision will be 5 m/s.
In an isolated system two cars each with a mass of 1000 kg collide Car 1 is initially at rest while Car 2 was moving at 10-ms They move off together What is their speed?
Since momentum must be conserved, they move off at a combined speed of 5 m/s. (If the masses are different, write an equation that states that momentum is conserved: momentum before the collision equal momentum after the collision).
Can you use motor driven car to prove law of conservation of momentum?
i think no. b/c for elastic or inelastic collision we do have momentum of the bodies initially. so motor driven car couldnot use to prove this law. As we know that momentum can be measured in the absence of force. yes we use force when momentum is changing, this is actually impulse.
Do you need a passport to get from Cardiff to dublin?
That will depend on your own nationality and where you are initially travelling from. Contact your department of foreign affairs, or the Irish one for more information.
