A 1800-kg car approaches an intersection traveling north at 20.0 m/s. A 1600-kg car approaches the same intersection traveling east at 10.0 m/s. The two cars collide at the intersection and lock together. Ignoring any external forces that act on the cars during the collision, what is the velocity of the cars immediately after the collision?

Two cars approach an ice-covered intersection. One car, of mass
1.21 X 10^3 kg, is initially traveling north at 12.1 m/s. The other
car, of mass 1.62 X 10^3 kg, is initially traveling east at 12.1
m/s. The cars reach the intersection at the same instant, collide,
and move off coupled together. Find the velocity of the center of
mass of the two-car system just after the collision.

Consider the collision of a 1500-kg car traveling east at 20.0
m/s (44.7 mph) with a 2000-kg truck traveling north at 25 m/s (55.9
mph). The cars lock together in such a way as to prevent them from
separating or rotating significantly. One second before the
collision, the car is located at position (x,y) = (-20,0) m and the
truck is located at position (x,y) = (0,-25) m.
Part a) Calculate the x-coordinate of the center of mass of the...
