Two cars collide at an intersection. Car A, with a mass of 2000 kg, is going from west to east, while car of mass 1500 kg, is going from north to south at 15 m/s. As a result, the two cars become enmeshed and move as one. As an expert witness, you inspect the scene and determine that, after the collision, the enmeshed cars moved at an angle of 52∘ south of east from the point of impact. How fast...
