A 2250 kilogram car traveling at 10.0 m/s collides with a car of mass 2750 kilogram that is initially at rest at a stoplight. The cars stick together and move 2.50 meter before friction causes them to stop. Find the coefficient of kinetic friction between the road and the cars, assuming that the negative acceleration is constant and that all wheels on both cars lock at the time of impact.
