Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
A body of mass 1 kg traveling with a speed 3 m/s collides with a body of mass 0.5 kg moving with a speed of 5 m/s. Both bodies are moving in the same direction. If they stick together after the collision, what speed do the two bodies have after the collision?
A
3.67 m/s
B
4.67 m/s
C
-3.67 m/s
D
-4.67 m/s
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -What is the kinetic energy of a body of mass 1kg moving with a speed of 2m/s? Here, mass of the body m=1 kg. Therefore, kinetic energy of the body is 2 J.

Detailed explanation-2: -Solution. So, the kinetic energy of the moving object is 2 J .

Detailed explanation-3: -Given: Mass (m)= 1 kg. Velocity (v)= 10 m/s. ∴The Kinetic Energy of the object is 50 J.

Detailed explanation-4: -The correct answer is option 3) i.e. 0.5 N. CONCEPT: Linear momentum(p): It is the product of mass(m) and velocity(v) of an object i.e.
