A 900-kg car traveling 30.0° south of east at 12.0 m/s suddenly collides with a 750-kg car traveling north at 17.0 m/s. The cars stick together after colliding. What is the speed of the wreckage just after the collision?

Answerthe energy required is 1.60 × 10⁻¹⁸ j, to three significant figures.explanationwe define electric potential as the ratio electric potential energy to the charge,    then the following gives us the potential difference,      the formula  may be on your formula sheet.the change in electric potential energy would be the energy that would needed to move it from point a to point b. solving for that, we get    using q = 8.00  × 10⁻¹⁹ c and  δv = 2.00 v, we get    the energy required is 1.60 × 10⁻¹⁸ j, to three significant figures.
