5.Work, Energy, Power and Collision
medium
A body of mass $10\,kg$ moving with speed of $3 \,ms ^{-1}$ collides with another stationary body of mass $5 \,kg$. As a result, the two bodies stick together. The $KE$ of composite mass will be .......... $J$
A
$60$
B
$30$
C
$90$
D
$120$
Solution
(b)
Using momentum conservation
$10(3)=15 \,V$
$V=2 \,m / s$
$K . E .=\frac{1}{2} m v^2=\frac{1}{2}(15)(2)^2$
$=30 \,J$
