a) What is the x-component of the initial momentum before the collision? ( -7100 kg·m/s, 64900 kg·m/s or 28900 kg·m/s)
b) What is the y-component of the initial momentum before the collision? (-36000 kg·m/s, -7100 kg·m/s, 64900 kg·m/s or 36000 kg·m/s)
c) What is the x-component of the two cars’ final velocity after the collision? (8.26 m/s, 17 m/s, 16.06 m/s)
d) What is the y-component of the two cars’ final velocity after the collision? (-20 m/s, -21.18 m/s, -10.29 m/s or 10.29 m/s)
e) What is the speed of the two cars after the collision?
f) How much kinetic energy is lost in the collision?
