Two cars collide at an icy intersection and stick together afterward. The first car has a mass of 1450 kg and is approaching at 6.5m/s due south. The second car has a mass of 750 kg and is approaching at 16 m/s due west. What is the magnitude of the final velocity, in meters per second, of the cars. What is the direction of the final velocity, in degrees south of west, of the cars. What is the change in kinetic energy, in joules, for the collision? (This energy goes into deformation of the cars.)

During a football game, a receiver has just caught a pass and is standing still. Before he can move, a tackler, running at a velocity of +3.9 m/s, grabs and holds onto him so that they move off together with a velocity of +2.3 m/s. If the mass of the tackler is 125 kg, determine the mass of the receiver in kilograms. Assume momentum is conserved. kg
