other, and they have a mass of mA = 23 Mg and mg = 14 Mg, respectively. The
directions of their initial velocities are shown in the image, and the speeds are VA,1
4.3 m/s and v³,1 = 2.9 m/s. Determine the velocity of A after collision if the cars
collide and rebound, such that B moves to the right with a speed of 1.8 m/s. Right is
considered the positive direction and negative sign must be included if A moves to
the left after the collision. Please pay attention: the numbers may change since they

Two cars collide at an intersection. Car A, with a mass of 2027 kg, is going from west to east, while
car B, of mass 1535 kg, is going from north to south at 18 m/s. As a result of this collision, the two
cars stick together and they moved at an angle of 65° south of east from the point of impact. How
fast (in m/s) were the entangled cars moving just after the collision?
