Problem: A puck of mass mp= 2 kg sliding on a frictionless ice surface with initial velocity Vp = (-6, 2, 0) m/s collides with a lump of clay, mc = 6 kg moving with initial velocity, Vc. After the collision the two objects stick together and the final velocity of the center of mass is Vp = (5, 3, 0) m/s. What is the approximate initial velocity of the clay, Vc just before the collision? o <8.7, 3.3, 0.0> m/s o <14.0, 14.0, 0.0> m/s o<26.0, 10.0, 0.0> m/s. o <4.7, 4.7, 0.0> m/s None of the above
