A car with mass 2.00 x 103 kg traveling west with a speed of 28.0 m/s collides at an intersection with a 2.50 x 103-kg van traveling north at a speed of 20.0 m/s. The vehicles undergo a perfectly inelastic collision (that is, they stick together) and assume that friction between the vehicles and the road can be neglected. Question 35 What is the magnitude of the momentum of the car before collision? Question 36 In what direction is the momentum of the car? BLANK-1 Question 37 What is the magnitude of the momentum of the van before collision?
