A satellite of mass 5000 kg is traveling east at 8000 m/s when it collides with a satellite-killing projectile of mass 500 kg moving straight up (away from the earth) at 3000 m/s. The projectile mostly misses the satellite, but it knocks off and sticks to a 125 kg-piece of the satellite. The projectile and the satellite piece move away at 45 degrees upward from east at 3400 m/s. The rest of the satellite continues to move directly east at some speed. What is it, in m/s (closest answer)?

A 3000-Kg car moving east at 10m/s collides with a 5000-kg car moving north. The car's stick together and move as a unit after a collision, at an angle of 45 degree north of east and a speed of 5 m/s. Find the speed of 5000 kg car before collision. (Ans: V_iy = 5.66m/s)
12. A 1500-kg car traveling at 30 m/s east collides with a 3000-kg car traveling at 20 m/s south. The two cars stick together after the collision. What is the speed of the cars after collision?
A car with mass 1500 kg traveling east at 25 m/s collides at an intersection with a 2500kg van traveling north at a speed of 20 m/s. Find the magnitude and direction of the velocity of the wreckage after the collision, assuming that the vehicles undergo a perfectly inelastic collision and assuming no friction.

A 900-kg car traveling east at 15.0 m/s collides with a 750-kg car traveling north at 20.0 m/s. The cars stick together. Assume that any other unbalanced forces are negligible. a. What is the speed of the wreckage just after the collision? b. In what direction does the wreckage move just after the collision? c. How much kinetic energy is lost in this collision.
A 1500-kg car traveling east at 50 m/s collides with a 2200-kg truck traveling north at 66 m/s. The car and truck become entangled and slide to a stop. What is the final speed immediately after the collision? What angle with respect to the east direction do the entangled vehicles slide?
A 20.0 g ball of clay traveling east at 4.00 m/s collides and sticks together with a 50.0 g ball of clay traveling north at 6.00 m/s. What is the speed of the resulting ball of clay?
A skater with a mass of 100kg is traveling East at 5m/s when he collides with another skater of mass 50kg heading North at 10 m/s. The 100kg skater goes off at 6m/s F. 45degree N after the collision. What velocity (speed and direction) does the 50kg skater go off in after the collision?
