Answer:
v_{4}= 80.92[m/s] (Heading south)
Explanation:
In order to calculate this problem, we must use the linear moment conservation principle, which tells us that the linear moment is conserved before and after the collision. In this way, we can propose an equation for the solution of the unknown.
ΣPbefore = ΣPafter
where:
P = linear momentum [kg*m/s]
Let's take the southward movement as negative and the northward movement as positive.

where:
m₁ = mass of car 1 = 14650 [kg]
v₁ = velocity of car 1 = 18 [m/s]
m₂ = mass of car 2 = 3825 [kg]
v₂ = velocity of car 2 = 11 [m/s]
v₃ = velocity of car 1 after the collison = 6 [m/s]
v₄ = velocity of car 2 after the collision [m/s]
![-(14650*18)+(3825*11)=(14650*6)-(3825*v_{4})\\v_{4}=80.92[m/s]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-%2814650%2A18%29%2B%283825%2A11%29%3D%2814650%2A6%29-%283825%2Av_%7B4%7D%29%5C%5Cv_%7B4%7D%3D80.92%5Bm%2Fs%5D)
It would make both half 4cm to 2cm wide, and 6cm to 3cm long, 10cm to 5cm hight it would split in half
