Two cars slide on icy roads into an intersection, collide and
continue their journey sticking together. The first car has a mass
of 1500 kg and an initial speed of 30 km/h, the second one has a
mass of 2000 kg and an initial speed of 20 km/h. Before the
collision, the velocities are perpendicular. Under which angle with
respect to the initial direction of the first car move both cars
after the collision? How much kinetic energy is lost in the
collision?
