A truck of mass 2500 kg was traveling north at 20 m/s along a street. A sports car of mass 1200 kg was traveling east at 25 m/s along a perpendicular street. If the two  collide inelastically at the intersection of the two streets, what is their resulting velocity?
A 20.0-kg toboggan with 58.3-kg driver is sliding down a frictionless chute directed θ = 27.6° below the horizontal at 7.70 m/s when a 55.0-kg woman drops from a tree limb straight down behind the driver. If she drops through a vertical displacement of 2.00 m, what is the subsequent velocity of the toboggan immediately after impact?
An object, in initially travelling 45° south of east at 100 m/s, explodes into three separate pieces. A 2.0 kg fragment travels due south at 105 m/s, while a 4.0 kg fragment travels due east at 155 m/s. The last fragment has a mass of 3.0 kg. The third fragment travels at an unknown velocity. Calculate its direction and magnitude of this unknown velocity.
