Car A has a weight of 4500 Ib and is traveling to the right at 3 ft/s. Meanwhile, a 3000-lb car B is traveling at 6 ft/s to the left. If the cars crash head-on and become entangled, determine their common velocity in ft/s just after the collision. Assume that the brakes are not applied during a collision.
The two cars collide at right angles in the intersection of two icy roads. Car A has a mass of 1985 kg and car B has a mass of 1540 kg.
The cars become entangled and move off together with a common velocity in the direction indicated. If car A was traveling 57 km/h at
the instant of impact, compute the corresponding velocity of car B just before impact.
