Solution

The correct option is B $2 m/s$

Let the common velocity is $v$ .

From law of conservation of linear momentum,

$m_{1} u_{1} + m_{2} u_{2} = (m_{1} + m_{2}) v$

$\Rightarrow 3 \times 7 + 5 \times (- 1) = (3 + 5) v$

$\Rightarrow v = 2 m/s$

Hence, option $(B)$ is the correct answer.

The correct option is B 2 m/s Let the common velocity is v. From law of conservation of linear momentum, m1u1+m2u2=(m1+m2)v ⇒3×7+5×(−1)=(3+5)v ⇒v=2 m/s ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Hence, option (B) is the correct answer.
