Question: Two objects are moving towards each other with velocities vec ( V ) 1 and vec ( V ) 2 on a frictionless surface. They

Two objects are moving towards each other with velocities vec(V)1 and vec(V)2 on a frictionless surface. They collide completely inelastically and move together after the collision with a velocity vec(V)3 as shown below. The magnitudes of the initial velocity of the second object and the common velocity they move with after the collision are |vec(V)2|=28,3ms and |vec(V)3|=19,8ms respectively. If the angles are 1=47 and 2=51, determine the ratio of the masses is m1m2=k=?? Note that masses can not be negative so the ratio must be positive. Express your answer using two decimal places.
