Sometimes it just picks for you
The key is in "they lock together". This tells you this is a complete inelastic collision and therefore you can use the formula:
m1*v1+m2*v2=v(m1+m2)
Plug in numbers:
2000*3+2000*2=v(2000+2000)
so v=2 m/s, obviously in the same direction of motion in which they were both moving.
First, calculate for the distance between the given points A and B by using the equation,
<span> D = sqrt ((x2 – x1)2 + (y2 – y1)2)</span>
Substitute the known values:
<span> D = sqrt((9 – 2)2 + (25 – 1)2)</span>
<span> D = 25 m</span>
I assume the unknown here is the time it would require for the particle to move from point A to B. This can be answered by dividing the calculated distance by the speed given above.
<span> t = (25 m)/ (50 m/s) = 0.5 s</span>
<span>Thus, it will take 0.5s for the particle to complete the route. </span>

Answer:
C = - 1.625 i + 6.06 j
Explanation:
Positive angles are measured counterclockwise.
Positive angles are measured counterclockwise. To determine the component on the x axis we use the cosine of the angle while to determine the component on the y axis we use the sine of the angle.

C = - 1.625 i + 6.06 j
