An 85 kg linebacker is running at 8 m/s directly toward the sideline of a football field. He tackles a 75 kg running back moving at 9 m/s straight toward the goal line (perpendicular to the original direction of the linebacker.) As a result of the collision both players momentarily leave the ground. Determine their common speed and direction immediately after they collide.
