A truck with a mass of 1430 kg and moving with a speed of 17.0 m/s rear-ends a 821 kg car stopped at an intersection. The collision is approximately elastic since the car is in neutral, the brakes are off, the metal bumpers line up well and do not get damaged. Find the speed of both vehicles after the collision in meters per second.

Vcar= ___ m/s

Vtruck= ___ m/s

A car and a truck are both travelling with a constant speed of 20 m/s. The car is 10 m behind the truck. The truck driver suddenly applies his brakes, causing the truck to decelerate at a constant rate of 2 m/s^2. Two seconds later, the driver of the car applies his brakes and just manages to avoid a rear-end collision. Determine the constant rate at which the car decelerated.
