The driver of an SUV (m= 1800 kg) moving at a velocity of 3.50 m/s isn't paying attention and rear ends a car (m = 1200 kg) that is at rest as it waits for the red light to turn green. On impact, both drivers lock their brakes. The SUV and car stick together and travel beyond the line. What is the velocity of the cars after the collision?
