Question
Mr. Mangan has a mass of 86 kg and is running at a bad guy with a velocity of 12 m/s.
The bad guy, with a mass of 100 kg, is stationary. Mr. Mangan tackles the bad guy and
they do not separate. What is their final velocity?
Transcribed Image Text:Mr. Mangan has a mass of 86 kg and is running at a bad guy with a velocity of 12 m/s. The bad guy, with a mass of 100 kg, is stationary. Mr. Mangan tackles the bad guy and they do not separate. What is their final velocity?
Expert Solution
Step 1

We know that according to given the problem is based on the concept of the collision. let the mass of Mr. Mangan is m1 and the mass of the bad guy is mand the bad guy is stationary initially and Mr. Mangan moves with the velocity u1 initially and Mr. Mangan tackles the bad guy and they do not separate, let the final velocity is v  

Then We know that it is a condition of inelastic collision.
