Find the velocity of the center of mass of car-truck system

Reference no: EM13551984

A 1486-kg car is moving westward with a speed of 20.3 m/s, and a 2898-kg truck is traveling east with a speed of 17.8 m/s. Find the velocity of the center of mass of the car-truck system. Assume that the "positive" direction is to the east.
