Expert Solution
Step 1

Given,

Mass of truck M = 1800 kg

Initial velocity of truck vt = 14 m/s 

Mass of car m = 1000 kg

Initial velocity of car vm = 18 m/s

Since  the car and truck lock together after Collision, it is an inelastic collision.

Using the conservation of momentum,

- Mvt + mvc = (M+m)v

v = (-Mvt + mvc)/(M+m)

v = (-1800*14 + 1000*18)/(1800+1000)

v = (-25200 + 18000)/2800

v = - 7200/2800 = 2.57 m/s
