I think I can answer your question since I've worked on this before.
Your answer should be obtain energy.
If your answer choices were;
obtain energy
escape predators
produce offspring
excrete waste
According to the given statement Final velocity when they stick together is 8.735i^ + 11.25j^
<h3>What is collision and momentum?</h3>
The unit of momentum is kg ms -1. Momentum is a vector parameter that is influenced by the object's direction. During collisions involving objects, momentum is a relevant concept. The final velocity before a collision between two objects equals the total motion after the impact (in the absence of external forces).
<h3>Briefing:</h3>
From conservation of momentum
Initial momentum = final momentum
m u +M U =(m+M) V
2000×25 i^ +1500×30 j^ =(2000+1500) V
V = 8.735i^ + 11.25j^
Final velocity when they stick together is 8.735i^ + 11.25j^

The complete question is -
A 2000 kg truck is moving eastward at 25 m/s. it collides inelastically with a 1500 kg truck traveling southward at 30 m/s. they collide at the intersection. Find the direction and magnitude of velocity of the wreckage after the collision, assuming the vehicles stick together after the collision.
<h2>Because kinetic energy is proportional to the velocity squared, increases in velocity will have an exponentially greater effect on translational kinetic energy. Doubling the mass of an object will only double its kinetic energy, but doubling the velocity of the object will quadruple its velocity.</h2>
