$A$ body of mass $2 \, kg$ is moving with velocity $10 \, m/s$ towards the east. Another body of the same mass and same velocity moving towards the north collides with the former,coalesces,and moves towards the north-east. What is its final velocity?

$A$ moving body of mass $m$ and velocity $3 \, km/h$ collides with a body of mass $2m$ at rest and sticks to it. Now the combined mass starts to move. What will be the combined velocity in $km/h$?

$A$ block of mass $4 m$ travelling at a velocity $v_1$ in the $x$-direction on a frictionless horizontal plane makes a head-on collision with another block of mass $2 m$ travelling in the opposite direction with a velocity $v_2$. After the collision,both blocks travel as a single block along the $x$-direction with a final velocity $5 v_2$. The ratio of velocities $\frac{v_1}{v_2}$ is

Statement $1$: In a perfectly inelastic collision,the total energy of two particles moving in the same direction is not completely lost.
