The total momentum of two fishes befor the impact was:
where "m_1 = 16.6kg" is the mass of the tuna, "v_1 = 6m\/s" is the speed of the tuna, "m_2 = 3kg" is the mass of the dalagang bukid and "v_2 = 8.5m\/s" is the speed of the dalagang bukid.
The momentum of two fishes after the impact is:
where "v'" is their speed (tuna's speed, in fact) after the impact.
Let's apply the momentum conservation law:
Answer. 2.95 m/s.
