Two cars collide at an intersection. Car A, with a mass of 2027 kg, is going from west to east, car B, of mass 1535 kg, is going from north to south at 18 m/s. As a result of this collision, the cars stick together and they moved at an angle of 65° south of east from the point of impact fast (in m/s) were the entangled cars moving just after the collision?
