The steps in collision
Question

 An object of mass 2 kg is moving with a velocity of 3 m/s and collide head-on with an object B of mas 1 kg moving in the opposite direction with a velocity of 4 m/s. After collision both objects coalesce so that they move with a common velocity v equal to

Moderate
Solution

Applying the law of conservation of momentum
2×31×4=(2+1)v 2=3v  or  V=2/3m/s
