Question

A car (VW) and a truck (C) collide inelastically (stick together). The impact is made in a very short time of Δt = 0.1 s.

Initial speeds:
UVW = 40.0 m / s
UC = 30.0 m / s
Masses:
MVW = 900.0 kg
MC = 2000.0 kg

a) Determine the initial vector velocities (use rectangular notation)
UVW =                              UC =

b) Determine the total vector momentum Initial     Pi =

c) Determine the final velocity of both    V =
