A 8.5 kg brick is dropped onto a 6.5 kg toy truck, which is moving across a level floor at 0.50 m/s. With what velocity do the truck and brick continue to move, after the brick has landed on the truck?

Respuesta :

Answer:0.2167 m/s

Explanation:

Given

mass of brick M=8.5 kg

mass of toy truck m=6.5 kg

the velocity of truck u=0.5 m/s

Suppose v is the velocity after brick is landed on the truck

There is no external force acting so momentum is conserved

mu=(M+m)v

[tex]v=\dfrac{6.5}{15}\times 0.5\\v=0.2167\ m/s[/tex]
