if a body of mass 2kg travels with 2 m/s and other body of mass 2kg travels with 1m/s then find v1 and v2 in given statement​

Correct option is

A

both particles move together with velocity (2/3) m/s

B

the momentum of system is 2 kg m/s throughtout

D

the loss of KE of system is (49/3) J

Given : m

=2kg m

2

=1kg u

=3 m/s u

2

=4 m/s

Let the common velocity of the combined body be V

Mass of combined body M=2+1=3kg

Applying conservation of momentum :

2×3−1×4=3×V ⟹V=

Momentum of the system P=2×3−1×4=2 kg m/s
