Car A was traveling east at high speed when it collided at point with
car B, which was traveling north at 72 Car which was traveling
west at 90 was 10 meast and 3 m north oI point at the time oI
the collision. Because the pavement was wet, the driver oI car C could
not prevent his car sliding into the other two cars, and the three cars,
stuck together, kept sliding until they hit the utility pole P. Knowingthat
the masses oI cars A, B, and C are, respectively, 1500 kg, 1300 kg, and
1200 kg, and neglecting the Iorces exerted on the cars by the wet
pavement, solve the problems indicated.
