A 3.71 kg ball of clay is traveling straight north with a speed of 24.8 m/s, collides with a 3.65 kg ball of clay travelling strait east with a speed of 23.4 m/s. What is the speed of this new ball of clay after its collision? (I got 17.1 m/s) What direction is it traveling, given as a degree north of east?
