<span>3. The attempt at a solution So basically what I did was divided into components. x: (3)(2000) = (3000)*v_x y: (v_vw)*(10000) = (3000)*v_y v_x, v_y is the velocity (after collision) in the x and y direction, respectively, of both cars stuck together (since it is an inelastic collision). v_vw is the initial velocity of the Volkswagen. Now what I did was that the angle is 35 degrees north of east. So basically made a triangle and figured that tan(35) = (v_y)/(v_x). This means (v_x)*(tan35) = v_y. Then, I simplified the component equations to get: x: 2 = v_x y: v_vw = 3*v_y Then plugging in for v_y, I got: v_vw = 3(2)(tan35) = 4.2 m/s as the velocity of the volkswagen. However, the answer key says 8.6 m/s. Could someone please help me out? Thanks Phys.org - latest science and technology news stories on Phys.org • Game over?

Answer:
C. is responsible for sliding friction and contact forces
Answer:
Low.
Explanation:
If you are performing an activity close to the ground, then that means that you are performing at a low level.
momentum= mass × velocity
p= 50×18
momentum= 900 kg m/s
