|
Answer» Mass of bullet = a Mass of wood = c Velocity of bullet = b. Initial momentum of the bullet = ab Initial momentum of the wood = c×0 = 0 (because the wood was at rest) Final mass of the system = a + c (because bullet goes inside the wood) Let the velocity of the system = v We know that Initial momentum = final momentum Initial Momentum of bullet + initial momentum of the wood = final momentum of the system ab + 0 = (a + c)v =>v = ab/(a + c) |
