Homework Statement
Two trucks with the same masses are moving toward each other along a straight line with speeds of 50 mi/h and 60 mi/h. What is the speed of combined trucks after completely inelastic collision?
i assume the 50m/s is moving east, while 60m/s mass is moving west. That would make their final combined velocity
pi=1*50
p2= 1*(-60)
50+(-60)= -1 <--i put this negative one here, cause that's what you did.
10mi/h

The Attempt at a Solution
pi=1*50
p2= 1*(-60)
50+(-60)= -1 <--i put this negative one here, i think that's right
10mi/h
which is actually wrong..
