A truck moving at 5 m/s [Right] on a level, icy road, bumps into the rear of a car of mass 1500 kg moving at 2 m/s in the same direction. If the velocity of the truck after the collision is 3 m/s [Right] and the car is moving at 6 m/s [Right], what is the mass of the truck? b) Is this collision elastic or inelastic? Show your work.
