QUESTION:

Problem 64P

Draw an appropriate graph of the data and, from the slope of the best-fit line, determine the impulse.

A 2100 kg truck is traveling east through an intersection at 2.0 m/s when it is hit simultaneously from the side and the rear. (Some people have all the luck!) One car is a 1200 kg compact traveling north at 5.0 m/s. The other is a 1500 kg midsize traveling east at 10 m/s. The three vehicles become entangled and slide as one body. What are their speed and direction just after the collision?

ANSWER:

Step 1 of 2

We are required to calculate the speed and direction of the entangled vehicles just after the collision.
