Practice question
Question
A 6 kg mass at 4 m/s collides inelastically with a stationary 2 kg mass. What is the final speed?
Explanation
Given:
A 6 kg mass at 4 m/s collides inelastically with a stationary 2 kg mass. What is the final speed?
These values define the system as per NCERT data.
Formula:
Momentum conservation: 6 × 4 = (6 + 2) v_f Rightarrow 24 = 8 v_f Rightarrow v_f = 3 m/s ..
This is the standard NCERT relation for this phenomenon.
Substitution & Calculation:
Substituting values like 1.2 × 10â»âµ, 236 J kgâ»Â¹ Kâ»Â¹, CH₃CHâ‚‚NHâ‚‚ etc. into the formula and simplifying step by step.
Result:
The computed value matches the expected outcome and confirms the correct choice. Units and powers like J kgâ»Â¹ Kâ»Â¹, m/s², 10â»âµ are properly used as per NCERT.
