The driver of a 1485 kg car is driving along a street at 25.0 mph. Another driver, coming from directly behind (and not paying attention), is driving a 1520 kg car at 38.0 mph and hits the slower car. If both drivers slam the brakes at the moment of impact and their fenders catch on each other (causing the two cars to stick together), with what combined speed do they begin to skid?
