A 1000 kg aircraft going 25 m/s collides with a 1500kg aircraft that is parked and they stick together after the collision and are going 10 m/s after the collision. If they skid for 6.6seconds before stopping, how far did they skid? Hint: Are the aircraft moving at a constant velocity after the collision or do they experience an acceleration?
