Mass of one of the objects, m1 = 100 g = 0.1 kg
Mass of the other object, m2 = 200 g = 0.2 kg
Velocity of m1 before collision, v1 = 2 m/s
Velocity of m2 before collision, v2 = 1 m/s
Velocity of m1 after collision, v3 = 1.67 m/s
Velocity of m2 after collision = v4
According to the law of conservation of momentum:
Total momentum before collision = Total momentum after collision
m1v1 + m2v2 = m1v3 + m2v4
⇒ 0.1×2 + 0.2×1 = 0.1×1.67 + 0.2×v4
⇒ 0.4 = 0.67 + 0.2×v4
⇒ v4 = 1.165 m/s
Hence, the velocity of the second object becomes 1.165 m/s after the collision.
