Two vehicles (a car and a truck) are involved in a collision and stick together. Just before the crash, the car, with a mass of 1200.0 kg, is travelling North with a velocity of 50.0 km/h, while the truck, with a mass of 1900.0 kg is travelling North-West with a velocity of 70.0 km/h (as shown below) (East = 0°, North = 90°, West = 180°, South = 270°) ▼ Part A The magnitude of the velocity of the vehicles after the collision will be: Uf = Π| ΑΣΦ ? km/h 45° N

A baseball with a mass of 150 g is thrown horizontally with a speed of 40.1 m/s (90 mi/h) at a bat. The ball is in contact with the bat for 1.00 ms and then travels straight back at a speed of 45.2 m/s (101 mi/h). Determine the average force (in N) exerted on the ball by the bat. Neglect the weight of the ball (it is much smaller than the force of the bat) and choose the direction of the incoming ball to be positive. (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.)

Two cars, both of mass m, collide and stick together. Prior to the collision, one car had been traveling north at speed 2v, while the second was traveling at speed v at an angle ϕ south of east (as indicated in the figure). After the collision, the two-car system travels at speed vfinal at an angle θ east of north. (Figure 1) What is the angle θ with respect to north made by the velocity vector of the two cars after the collision? Express your answer in terms of ϕ.
