Car A has a mass of 2000 kg and speed of 10 miles per hour. Car B has mass of 1000 kg and speed of 30 miles per hour. The two cars collide to each other and stick together after collision in three different situations. Calculate the velocity of the two cars after the collision.

1. Car A moves East and car B moves West and had a head to head collision. Calculate the velocity of the two cars after the collision (speed and direction).

2. Car B follows car A and both head toward the East. Car B had a head to tail collision with car A. Calculate the velocity for the two cars after the collision(speed and direction).

3.Car A moves to the East and car B moves to the North and collide in a cross road. Calculate the velocity for the two cars after the collision (speed and the angle of the velocity).

A researcher claims that the average wind speed in his city is 10 miles per hour. In a random sample of 36 days, you found the average speed of wind is 10.2 with a standard deviation of 0.8 miles per hour. At α=0.05 is there enough evidence to say that the average is greater than the researcher’s claim. Show your work by using hypothesis testing.
