Question Number 47964 by Rio Michael last updated on 17/Nov/18
A particle A at rest with position vector 2i−j  with mass 500kg is hit by   another particle B moving at a velocity of (5i−4j)ms^(−1)  with mass 300kg.  and they all move in the direction of B.  a) What is the momentum after impact?  b) Calculate the impulse generated,hence or otherwise,  Calculate the distance A and B cover after impact at   a time of 1minute.
