Expert Solution

initail momentum along x direction =MVx

                                                                =3.05*4.90 kg m/s

                                                                =14.945 i kg m/s

and momentum along y direction = MVy

                                                             =2.01*(-3.62) j kg m/s

                                                             = -7.2762 j kg m/s

final mass of system=M1+M2

                                     =3.05+2.01

                                      =5.06 kg

conserving momentum along x direction

final momentum =initial momentum

14.945 i kg m/s=Mf VX

                        =5.06 kg * Vx

so velocity along x is Vx =14.945/5.06

                                      =2.953 i m/s

again

conserving momentum along y direction

final momentum =initial momentum

-7.2762 j kg m/s=Mf Vy

                        =5.06 kg * Vy

so velocity along x is Vy =-7.2762 /5.06

                                       = -1.4379 j m/s

v=(2.953 i-1.4379j)
