A 1700 kg car moving east at 17 m/s collides with a 1800 kg car
moving south at 20 m/s, and the two cars stick together. Consider
east the positive x-direction and north the positive
y-direction.
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)

A car moving due east at 6 m/s collides at the intersection with
an identical car. If the entangled wreckage moves at 5.5 m/s at 22
degrees north of east after the collision, what was the velocity
and direction of the second car immediately before the collision?
The entangled wreckage slides along the horizontal road leaving
skid marks. If the coefficient of friction between the entangled
wreckage and the road is 0.34, how long are the skid marks?

As shown below, a 840 kg car traveling east collides
with a 1730 kg pickup truck that is traveling north. The two
vehicles stick together as a result of the collision. After the
collision, the wreckage is sliding at vf = 19 m/s in the
direction θ = 25° east of north. Calculate the speed of
each vehicle before the collision. The collision occurs during a
heavy rainstorm so you can ignore friction forces between the
vehicles and the wet...
