If two spaceships have equal masses and one is stationary and one is moving What is their combined speed if they collide and stick together?

The new speed for the combined masses will be one-half the original velocity of the moving spaceship, since the momentum is applied to a mass twice as large.

What is collision theory?
The collision theory is when atoms, molecules or ions bash together or collide together. Collision theory states that the rate of a reaction may be increased by : increasing pressure; raising the amount of heat energy; raising the concentration of the reactant and by introducing a catalyst.
Spaceship 1 and Spaceship 2 have equal masses of 300 kg. They collide. Spaceship 1's final speed is 2 ms and Spaceship 2's final speed is 1 ms in the same direction. What is their combined momentum?
