Question

Transcribed Image Text:In outer space, far from other objects, two rocks collide and stick together. Before the collision, their
momenta were (-10,20,-5) kg⋅m/s and (8,-6,12) kg⋅m/s. What was their total momentum before the
collision? What must be the momentum of the combined object after the collision?
