Two cars arriving at a T-intersection crash with each other. The first car has a mass of 1320kg and was traveling east at 80.0 km/h, the second car has a mass of 1740kg and was traveling north at 65.0km/h. If the collision is completely inelastic. with what speed are the wrecks moving after the collision and in which direction? You can ignore the effect of friction forces between the road and the cars during the collision.
