Let mass Amoves with velocity v and collides inelastically with mass B, which is at rest.

Question Image

According to problem mass A moves in a perpendicular direction and let the mass B moves at angle θ with the  horizontal with velocity v.
Initial momentum of the system
(before collision) = mvi^ -------(i)
Final momentum of thesystem
(after collision) = mv3j^+p-------- (ii)
From the conservation  linear momentum
mvi^=mv3j^+p p=mvi^-mv3j^ p=mv2+v23=m2v3 ;velocity =2v3
