Textbook Question
Chapter 6, Problem 8WUE
A car of mass 750 kg traveling at a velocity of 27 m/s in the positive x-direction crashes into the rear of a truck of mass 1 500 kg that is at rest and in neutral at an intersection. If the collision is inelastic and the truck moves forward at 15.0 m/s, what is the velocity of the car after the collision? (See Section 6.3.)
