19). A small asteroid (m - 10 kg, v = -15 km's) hits a larger asteroid (m = 10" kg, v = 17 km/s) at an angle of = ” 15° (so not quite head-on). They merge into one body. What is the final momentum of the combined object and what direction is it going in? Make the larger asteroid be moving in the +x direction when constructing your diagram
