A 1050-kg sports car is moving westbound at 15.0 m/s on a levelroad when it collides with a 6320-kg truck driving east on the sameroad at 10.0 m/s. The two vehicles remain locked togetherafter the collision.

A.) What is the velocity (magnitude and direction) of the twovehicles just after the collision?

B.) At what speed should the truck have been moving so that it andcar are both stopped in the collision?

C.) Find the change in KE of the system of two vehicles for thesituations of part (a) and part (b).
