Acar with mass mc = 1490 kg is traveling west through an intersection at a magnitude of velocity of vc = 9.5 m/s when a truck of mass mt = 1650 kg traveling south at vt = 6.4 m/s fails to yield and collides with the car. the vehicles become stuck together and slide on the asphalt, which has a coefficient of friction of μk = 0.5. write equation of the velocity of the system after collision.

v= - 4.507 i - 2.363 j

Explanation:

 Given that

mc= 1490 kg

vc= 9.5 m/s ( - i)

mt=  1650 kg

vt = 6.4 m/s ( -j)

There is any external force so linear momentum will remain conserve.

Lets take final speed is v.

mc .vc + mt . vt = ( mc+mt) v

1490 x 9.5 ( - i) + 1650 x 6.4 ( -j) = ( 1490+1650) v

14,155 ( -i) + 10,560 ( - j) = 3140 v

v= - 4.507 i - 2.363 j

in order to follow the instructions and complete the statements, i need to use data from table c of your student guide. can you think of a way to let me see your student guide for a while ? i can't answer the question without the data in table c.
