NOTE: This is a multi-part question. Once an answer is submitted, you will be unable to return to this part. At an intersection car 8 was traveling south and car A was traveling 30° north of east when they slammed into each other. Upon investigation, it was found that after the crash, the two cars got stuck and skidded off at an angle of 10° north of east. Each driver claimed that he was going at the speed limit of 50 km/h and that he tried to slow down, but couldn't avoid the crash because the other driver was going a lot faster. The masses of cars A and B were 1650 kg and 1350 kg, respectively. 30 10° Which car was going faster? (You must provide an answer before moving to the next part) (Click to select) was going faster.
