    A 10 kg ball moving with velocity 2 m/s collides with a 20 kg mass initially at rest. If both of them coalesce, the final velocity of combined mass is:

    A) \[\frac{3}{4}\]m/s                                           

    B) \[\frac{1}{3}\]m/s           

    C) \[\frac{3}{2}\]m/s                           

    D)        \[\frac{2}{3}\]m/s

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Using law of conservation of momentum \[{{m}_{1}}{{u}_{1}}+{{m}_{2}}{{u}_{2}}=({{m}_{1}}+{{m}_{2}})\upsilon \] Here: \[{{m}_{1}}=10\,kg,\,\,{{m}_{2}}=20\,kg,\,{{u}_{1}}=2\,m/s,\] \[u=0\] So, \[10\times 2+0=(10+20)\upsilon \]                 \[\upsilon =\frac{20}{30}=\frac{2}{3}\,m/s\]
