A1.55 kg falcon catches a 0.395 kg dove from behind in midair. what is their velocity after impact if the falcon's velocity is initially 29.5 m/s and the dove's velocity is 7.15 m/s in the same direction?

The velocity after impact 24.96 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of falcon = 1.55 kg

Mass of dove = 0.395 kg

Velocity of falcon = 29.5 m/s

Velocity of dove = 7.15 m/s

We need to calculate the velocity after impact

Using conservation of momentum

Where,

u = initial velocity

v = final velocity

= mass of falcon

= mass of dove

Put the value in the equation (I)

Hence, The velocity after impact 24.96 m/s
