A 2.10 kg "particle" traveling with velocity = (3.7 m/s )i collides with a 4.70 kg "particle" traveling with velocity V = (1.7 m/s )j. The collision connects the two particles. What then is their velocity in (a) unit-vector notation and as (b) a magnitude and (c) a positive (counterclockwise) angle measured from the +x axis?
