Anybody help A 4.2-kg fish swimming 1.4m/s swallows an absentminded 1.0-kg fish swimming toward it at a speed that brings both fish to a halt immediately after lunch. Find the speed of the approaching smaller fish before lunch. Two automobiles, each of mass 1100kg , are moving at the same speed, 23m/s , when they collide and stick together. In what direction and at what speed does the wreckage move if one car was driving north and one south.
