Two asteroids collide and stick together. The first asteroid has mass of 15×103kg and is initially moving at 770 m/s. The second asteroid has mass of 20×103kg and is moving at 1020 m/s. Their initial velocities made an angle of 20° with respect to each other. What is the final speed and direction with respect to the velocity of the first asteroid?

Initially, bumper car 1 is traveling to the east at 5.70 m/s, and bumper car 2 is traveling 79.1° south of west at 4.25 m/s. They collide and stick together, as the driver of one car reaches out and grabs hold of the other driver. The two bumper cars move off together after the collision, and friction is negligible between the cars and the ground.
