not even sure where to start on this one
Consider the following frictionless collision: Mass A (60 kg) moves west at 5.00 m/s and mass B (20 kg) moves south at 20 m/s. They collide and stick together.
1.) what are the magnitude and the direction of their velocity after they stick together? Give sketch and angle.
2.) Is any kinetic energy lost in the collision? If so how much?
3.) Is this an elastic collision? why or why not?
thanks for the help everyone
