Object A is moving due east, while object B is moving due north. They collide and stick together in a completely inelastic collision. Momentum is conserved. Object A has a mass of mA = 16.0 kg and an initial velocity of v0A = 7.95 m/s, due east. Object B, however, has a mass of mB = 30.5 kg and an initial velocity of v0B = 4.85 m/s, due north. Find the magnitude of the final velocity of the two-object system after the collision.

One object is at rest, and another is moving. The two collide in a one-dimensional, completely inelastic collision. In other words, they stick together after the collision and move off with a common velocity. Momentum is conserved. The speed of the object that is moving initially is 30 m/s. The masses of the two objects are 3.0 and 7.6 kg. Determine the final speed of the two-object system after the collision for the case (a) when the large-mass object is...
