A 1000-kg car traveling east at 30.0 m/s collides with a 950-kg car traveling north at 25.0 m/s. The cars stick together. Assume that any other unbalanced forces are negligible. What is the speed of the wreckage just after the collision?
Please do on paper and show all equations and work done to get to the final answer. Along with any helpful diagrams if needed.
These are a part of my review questions in the book but i keep getting different answers from what the book says, it is not a graded assignment***
Was not explained in my physics 2 lecture, and I'm confused!
A 75.0-kg person drops from rest a distance of 1.20 m to a platform of negligible mass supported by an ideal stiff spring of negligible mass. The platform drops 6.00 cm before the person comes to rest. What is the spring constant of the spring?
