Hey there!
Seems like you're looking for the size and direction to the final velocity of the two cars. To find it, you must solve it like this.
0.4 kg(3 m/s) + 0.8kg(–2 m/s) = 1.2 kg m/s -1.6 kg m/s = –0.4 kg m/s
–0.4 kg m/s = 1.2 kg(v) = (–0.4 kg m/s)/(1.2 kg) = v = –0.33 m/s
So, the cars are traveling at -0.33 m/s in the direction of the second car.
Hope this helps

Explanation:
Momentum Is defined as the product of of mass and its velocity
Momentum (M) =mass *velocity
SI unit of momentum is kgm/s
The rate of change in momentum
=change in momentum / time
=(mv-mu)/t
It’s 4 because a coiled springs is closely spaced then widen
Physical, chemical, chemical, physical, I’m pretty sure. Natural things, like you starting to breathe heavier are physical most of the time!!!
