The two cars collide at right angles in the intersection of two icy roads. Car A has a mass of 1040 kg and car B has a mass of 1005 kg. The cars become entangled and move off together with a common velocity in the direction indicated. If car A was traveling 44 km/h at the instant of impact, compute the corresponding velocity of car B just before impact. 25 A= 44 km/h Answer: VB km/h
